Hi Junio,

I disagree. The commit comment is meant to give context to the
introduced changes. One change is the  additional comment for
__git_eread, which now clearly states that only a single line is read.

I'm well aware that I'm not breaking reading multiple lines, because
that never worked in the first place. Thus, it was never the indented
use for __git_eread as I see it. I explicitly want to include that
information in my commit message to pay it forward to the next person
working on the prompt.

Regards,

Robert
