Tested on a custom Atom build based on merging https://github.com/atom/atom/pull/12696/commits/96533998e2da5ee8f3adadc86efb48e9405ae6e5 and https://github.com/atom/atom/pull/13691/commits/4f1b5b70b54e6704037c47b177138afd7465a98f into https://github.com/atom/atom/commit/1992c17399249a67f74418ee1d75db0f8a0ccfae.

Additional Information

git CLI:
Note how it highlights any text placed on that line in orange/red!
As an example of how other implementations handle this, here's GitKraken:
Result:
When viewing the commits on GitHub it handles the lack of a blank line in the same manner as the other tools, but as the blank line is what the official git client does and what other tools do it would be good to follow their lead. It also makes parsing of the messages simpler 😉.
