| 13 | DESCRIPTION |
| 14 | ----------- |
| 15 | This command allows you to add notes to commit messages, without |
| 16 | changing the commit. To discern these notes from the message stored |
| 17 | in the commit object, the notes are indented like the message, after |
| 18 | an unindented line saying "Notes:". |
| 19 | |
| 20 | To disable commit notes, you have to set the config variable |
| 21 | core.notesRef to the empty string. Alternatively, you can set it |
| 22 | to a different ref, something like "refs/notes/bugzilla". This setting |
| 23 | can be overridden by the environment variable "GIT_NOTES_REF". |
| 24 | |
