then please do a "touch .git/commit-template" and call cg-commit. Now
you will see what I mean. It is too easy to screw up.

Why not leave the list of modified files in the hand of the cg-commit
and people that wanna extra text inside their commit-template add
something like:

CG: ---
CG: This is my testing tree, don't commit

This will look much prettier and gives people the same possibilities to
change everything. If you wanna make the modified files list into a full
configurable template, then I think you must introduce place holders.

Also an option to suppress the list of modified files is possible.
