Well, this line sounds kind of awkward actually, so I was even thinking
about removing it.

Decent editors should probably have a plugin to put the cursor here and
be done with it.


In fact what looks odd is the GIT: stuff. a line looking like:

    --- write your message below this line ---

Looks 10x better, though need some code to strip it out if the user kept
it, and I'm lazy, GIT: stuff is automatically removed...


But if that's the only thing that you don't like in the series, I'm
glad, this is quite a minor issue ;)
