I guess emacs is slightly better than vi[m], but only in the same way that bronchitis is better than pneumonia. Since commit messages are commonly a line or two of plain text, using an unintuitive program like either seems to me like trying to run a marathon in Doctor Martin boots.

lol, emacs is certainly overkill. I enjoyed it in university, but these days I'd be aiming for atom if I needed this. I tend to just use -m at the CLI if I don't have a client.
