You could just have commit.template point into the PETSc repository. Doesn't work for sufficiently old maintenance, but new development would see it. The feature request would be to allow referring to a ref in the repository (not a file in the working tree). It's very similar to the issue of distributing hooks with the repository -- checking out an old version gets you old hooks.
