awesome, thanks. I have no idea why that wouldn't be on by default. Can't imagine anyone getting annoyed by having it there.



It's not on by default, because it's not the default when using git from the command line. If someone is new to git it might be a little scary to see a wall of text when committing.

I'm not sure that it's actually documented though, which definitely is an error on my part.
