I've got a local copy of debcommit with a slightly revised patch

works great for commits and "debcommit --diff $file" but haven't
found a method that works properly for "debcommit --diff" yet.

I believe you're misinterpreting the purpose of my patch.  It doesn't
fix the '--diff' case (which, now that I've looked at the code, is
broken too... I just never tried it).

This patch fixes the getmessage() function in the case of an empty git
repo.  Since it only operates on one file (debian/changelog), using
"diff -u /dev/null" works fine.

I don't think I'm misinterpreting it and I'm more than happy with how your patch works - I just want a version that does more ;-)

As a frequent user of --diff, it was one of the first things I tried whilst testing your patch and I'd like to get that working before committing the changes.

Adam
