Hi,

Since there are not many users of git-commit's *-m* flag right now: Is it necessary to confuse CVS people, who expect to be able to write

	git commit -m "I did this and that"

I do not want to be too intrusive, but I think up to now there is just the mailbox tools which use this feature, and users of git-reset. Thoughts?

Ciao, Dscho
