I tend not to trim the message below my signature (which indicates the
end of my comments), but I do trim the context above it. I aim to leave
enough context that someone reading my reply can comprehend it without
needing to read the message I'm replying to. In this case the original
commit message was only a couple of paragraphs and I though it was
relevant context for my reply so I left it in. As a thread gets longer
I'll trim earlier discussions more aggressively.
Thanks
Phillip
