I've just written cover letter text in separate files and copied them into the generated files every time. (I don't use branch descriptions.) I've wanted some convenient way to feed these messages in, and if I end up writing a cover letter again I'll most probably be using this new option. Cheers -- Kristoffer Haugsbakk
