Yes, thank you for spotting my typo. :)
I think that the auto-generated commit entries (I assume you mean
specifically the commit messages) would only be appropriate for routine
commits done in the grimoire, such as simple spell updates or creations.
There would need to be an easy way to override that function though for
non-routine cases.
Depending on one's editor, this could be accomplished relatively easily.
However, a better solution would be to implement this as a git hook
(PREPARE-COMMIT-MSG, so that the editor is still brought up and the
template can easily be modified?) within the grimoire git repository,
which could be tracked by the repository and thus all clones of the main
repository would pull it in.
I think further discussion should probably be moved to its own thread,
as this one is getting heavy with messages not directly related to the
parent...
