Simplest vim motions in [r]eword commit message?

[antenando]

Hi! 1st of all thank you for this amazing project. Wouldn't change it for anything else.

Secondly, what do you think of very simple vim motions inside of the [r]eword commit msg panel? Like "dd" is the one I'm going for here, just to delete the line. But obviously other basic ones would be great too.

Thanks!

There's no reason for that when you can open it up in your editor using <c-o> and e.

There are some emacs keybindings (which I don't remember) e.g. <c-u>, <c-a>, <c-e>, but the commit editor is supposed to be simple.

If there are some emacs keybinds it could have a simple vim mode as well since we can already navigate with hjkl outside the commit pop-up it would keep the consistency.

Emacs keybindings are ubiquitous in shells and don't introduce modality, "simple vim mode" is anything but simple.

If you're writing such messages that you need vim keybindings, open the commit editor in vim.
