I'm not sure when I would get to doing this, but for LyX's Git VC backend, would it be OK if I added support for multi-line commit messages?
I could format it similar to how Vim does it by default: - Subject line should be 50 characters. The user could enter more characters, but the additional characters will be marked in a different color, signaling that the recommended 50 has been exceeded. - There should be a blank line between the subject line and the body. - Wrap the body of the commit message to 72 characters. I'm not familiar with LyX's code. I'm guessing I should do as much as possible in the VC abstraction class, so that current and future backends could also optionally choose to have such features?
