From: Thijs van Dien Date: Thu, 28 Jul 2016 22:19:57 GMT Subject: [Git 2.9.2] diff inserted by commit.verbose not removed when rewording Message-ID: <539E05B5-13A5-4343-9296-19447BE14F14@vandien.net> I'm just a random Git user, not very familiar with the Git development process and so on, so please by gentle. Setup: - OS X 10.11.6 - Git 2.9.2 via Homebrew Curiosity triggered me to enable 'commit.verbose' globally with 'git config --global commit.verbose true'. I have not configured it on the repo. It works as expected when committing; the diff is appended to the commit message template, yet doesn't make it into the commit when untouched. Today I noticed that when I then rebase interactively ('git rebase -i HEAD~2'; whatever) and reword a specific commit, the diff that is appended then is _not_ removed and _does_ make it into the commit. The template looks OK ('------------------------ >8 ------------------------' and so on is there) but it seems that the logic to actually cut along that line is not executed then. I'm not sure what more I can say about it.
