Hi,

I'm using git-commit with the --template option. The template I'm
given is self sufficient for my purpose but as stated in the
documentation, git-commit wants the template to be edited otherwise it
aborts the operation.

Is it possible to change this ?

Thanks

It seems you want -F instead of --template.

Perhaps you wanted to use --file instead of --template?

Yes, but I want git to still parse the log and sanitize it (remove
trailing whitespaces, comments ...)

I actually found that "-F --edit" is what I needed.

Thanks both for your answer.
