Why it commit summary always defaulting to branch name?

[joshgoebel]

I'm guessing I broke something, but I don't recall changing anything - and in the past I recall this field alway starting empty. Can anyone help? I built the latest version from source today and still seeing this issue.

Could you please post your config.yml?

@joshgoebel This is because your config file contains the following:

git:
  commitPrefix:
    - pattern: ""
    - replace: ""

Delete this, that should solve it.

Also, I would guess that you copied and pasted the entire config defaults section from here into your config file; that's not a good idea, it is better to only put those settings in your config file that you want to change.

Would a PR be welcome adding a warnign that says copying the "default" config is not a good idea?

[stefanhaller]

Working on it already. 😄
