[PATCH] git: Do not end commit titles with dots

[Sitaram Chamarty]

Somewhat ironically, considering the topic under discussion, I looked
only at the subject line and responded, without realising that this is
about a single sentence-ending period, not literally "dots" (plural).

I blame Monday morning blues (it's Monday morning here in India).

Apologies for the noise.

But back on topic, I support this patch, for what it is worth.
