Description

Discussed in https://github.com/Murmele/Gittyup/discussions/455

Originally posted by jkohlin February 2, 2023 It would be really nice to be able to have some variables available when writing a commit template. Like %branch and %author image

Contributor guide

Research direction
Look into the commit dialog code to see how the commit message template is used. Find where the template is expanded and plan to replace %branch and %author with the current branch and Git author information.
