Hi,
Please CC: me in replies, I'm not a list member.
I've just found that git-gui does not show commit templates.

I've checked and found this commit: 627c87f84c157885d587125cf0c73591a0e3ee7a

which suggests to me that the issue should have been fixed, but it clearly has not.

I've removed git-gui from the system (Ubuntu package), and compiled the latest mainline git-gui (as of today), and the problem remains.

(In fact, worse, its now auto-filling in my signed-off-by: line rather than leaving the commit message blank (or preferably, showing the template).
