Eh, no? At least, whenever I do commit or rebase -i, git automatically
inserts a trailer starting with the magic scissor line

Maybe there's some other config option to get that, or it depends on git
version. But I certainly don't do anything at all other than write or
modify the commit message.

Never had a problem myself since I set commit.cleanup = scissors, but I
have had lots of my commit messages mangled, which is why I'm reacting.

Command prompt char is not the only problem; C snippets with #include or
other preprocessor directives also regularly gets mangled, as does shell
snippets with a bit of commentary.
