How to add description to git commit message?

#1

Hi,

First off, loving Sublime Merge so far - so speedy!

Simple question: is it possible to add both ‘title’ and ‘description’ to a commit message? With other git gui’s, I usually tab from the title box to the description box to give some extra info.

thanks,
Rich

Yes it is possible, just the same way as you would do it in an editor. The first line of a commit message is always the title. Per convention the content is separated by an empty second line.

TITLE

content

Oh cool - didn’t realize that box functioned as a multi-line box too. I like it!

Thanks again,
Rich

Hi. It works but I had an issue about that.
When I want to add to commit subject and description like,

#TITLE-123

Lorem ipsum sit dolor amet

After the commit, title is disappearing because of ‘#’. Any suggestions?

# is the comment char in git commit msg by default.
