 # that we can insert our template text other than at the top of the
 # message.

 # Install by copying into the git hooks directory - for example,
 # cp tools/tools/git/hooks/prepare-commit-msg .git/hooks/

 # 3. The remainder of the git-provided template (from the first comment-only

 #    not staged, and untracked files.
