While I understand the usefulness of the diff feature, it is not useful to everyone, e.g. those using almost exclusively ``commit -m message``. Of course it would be nice if hg made it easier (a hgrc option, for example) to do this. BTW, I had not heard of hgeditor before, and wrote a small hg extension to do what you want (with HG: prefix :) before I saw that others had already replied with hgeditor. The extension had 10 lines of code. Georg
