CodePudding user response：

Git does not do this for you.

If you would like to have something (not Git itself) do it for you, write yourself a "prepare commit message" hook as described in the githooks documentation. The name of this hook is prepare-commit-msg and it must be located in .git/hooks or your configured hook directory.

You must write this hook yourself (or perhaps find one, but StackOverflow is not the place to go for recommendations of this sort).
