*
* I have always seen this on multidirectory commits. What happens is the
* message is created in the first subdirectory, since each directory is
* the current directory for the commit phase.
*
* Typically, if the changes you made are all described by your first comment,
* use the '!' to reuse the comment on all files.
I know.... Sorry if it wasn't clear, the problem is that it DIDN'T
re-use the message after my "!", printed out the message ("ci
warning") given above and then resorted to ">>" prompts (the one you
get on vanilla ci operation...I think) for the remaining files.
Anybody else having problems with multi-directory commits?
