Re: [PATCH] trailer: ignore first line of message

Thanks, this fixes my issue.

There's one more corner-case I've just thought of:

git commit -m 'place of code: change we made'

(with the line break)

Git considers this message as a summary line broken in the middle. "git log --oneline" shows it as a one-liner, as if it were 'place of code: change we made'.

Even with your patch, the trailer is added without a blank line, and renders on the subject line in `git log --oneline`. My command above with a commit-msg hook outputs:

[master 86f32d5] place of: code: change we made Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr>

(on a single line)

I do not care deeply, but you may want to let interpret-trailers deal with this case too.

Thanks,
