I always want to see the diff while editing a commit message, even if
it's the commit message of a merge, a revert, a squash in rebase.
Since these commands do not have an option equivalent to 'git commit
-v', I wrote a little prepare-commit-msg hook to always append the
appropriate diff to the end of the appropriate commit message file.
This worked pretty well for the last couple of months, until 5/5 got
into maint.

So, what is the/is there a preferred way to always include the diff in
the commit message template and get it removed automatically?  Are
there any workarounds other than revert that commit locally?

Thanks,
Gábor
