Add beetil# prefixes to the commit message if your branch looks like it matches a beetil

.bashrc

# Verbose commit all changes to tracked files
alias gcav='git commit -avem "$(beetil_commit_prefix)"'

# Verbose commit specified files
# eg gcv app/views app/models/user.rb
gcv() {
  git commit -vem "$(beetil_commit_prefix)" "$@"

# Warning: If you close the edit message window unchanged,
# your commit will go ahead because a commit message has been set.
# You need to abort the command in your terminal or
# clear the commit message before saving to abort.
# And there's always undo.
