Subject: Commit with an empty message broken since v1.8.2.1
Date: Sat, 25 May 2013 21:12:06 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <195A1F16-B587-4217-97BF-6A92DA8C0786@gmail.com> (raw)

Commit a24a41ea9a928ccde2db074ab0835c4817223c9d introduces a bug which is still present in latest master.

This command 

    git commit -m "" --allow-empty --allow-empty-message

should create an empty commit with an empty message and never open a text editor for the commit message. Since the change, the editor is always opened.

My current workaround to skip the editor is setting the environment variable:

    GIT_EDITOR=true
