git-commit-overflow does not see comments about kakoune-extra-filetypes HOT 5 OPEN

The original implementation handled comments. But then the regex was very long, and I figured the main usecase was for single-commit messages, so simplified the code heavily.

I might revisit the regex to handle squashed commits.

Even in a simple git commit, the first line of comments is highlighted as "supposed to be blank". Maybe that case could be fixed more easily.

Do you still have this one laying around? Because I didn't find it in the history of this repo and I'm also in search of those git-commit editor features (like mawww/kakoune#3228)

Edit: are you referring to mawww/kakoune#3228 (comment)? I didn't try everything out yet... Tried and is not handling comments.

I think that was the implementation, and that it broke after Kakoune stopped interpreting \A as the beginning of the buffer (or something).

Thanks! I'll see what I can do with it & learn more about highlighters in the process...
