Maybe a command option or a config option. The underlying idea of providing and ignoring instructions to the user is still sound and is in line with Fossil's philosophy of making it easy to use out-of-the-box. Also, for what it's worth, my team currently relies on Fossil doing this. Yes, sometimes ignoring lines starting with # is inconvenient, but it's no big deal to "hide" the #. Again, for what it's worth, when we were still using MS Windows (because of tools being tied to MS Windows), we used CodeWright as our IDE, which had good support for command line tools. We configured the "Check In" command as "fossil addremove; fossil commit -M %Q:Enter brief commit message%". For this, CW would pop-up a text entry dialog with the title "Enter brief commit message", Then CW would would create a temporary file with the the entered text and run the command, replacing the %Q:...% with the file name. Once libfossil is far enough along, we might consider making plug-ins for the IDEs we currently use.
