Trac: typesetting git commit messages

[Jeroen Demeyer]

I have a small feature request for Trac.

In the auto-generated comments about new git commits, the commit message
should be typeset as pre-formatted text. For example, I have a commit
message containing "__call__(**kwds)" but those special symbols are
interpreted as underline and bold. In Trac markup, this formatting can
be achieved using {{{commit message}}}.

Jeroen.

Sounds reasonable to me, even though you should probably avoid code in the commit message. Just say "add optional keywords to constructor" or some such. Code goes into the commit ;-)

Andrew, do you want to add this to the git commit hook?

I know you are partially kidding, but at least we should be able to
mention method names in commit messages and __call__ is a method name.
