You do not need to start with "Rationale", because one of the things you need to have in any proposed log message is a justification for the change. You also do not need "Currently" in our log message, as the convention here is to state the status quo in the present tense, point out what's wrong there (or leave it unsaid and implied by the description of the current state, if it is obvious), state the approach to correct what's wrong, and finally give an order to the codebase to "become like so". Unlike other Git subcommands, "git send-email" leaves its output an incomplete line when "--git-completion-helper" is asked. Be consistent by terminating the message with LF here. or something like that. I do not know which style is preferred among (1) print something; print "\n"; (2) print something, "\n"; (3) print something . "\n"; but other than that, the goal and the implementation both sound sensible (the second one is what I'd be writing if I were doing this change myself, FWIW).

Rationale: Currently all git built-in commands print a newline upon upon git <cmd> --git-completion-helper. Therefore git-send-email should follow suit for consistency. Signed-off-by: Thiago Perrotta <tbperrotta@gmail.com> --- git-send-email.perl | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)
