This is a feature, not a bug ;)

See http://egit.eclipse.org/r/#change,1213 and http://tbaggery.com/2008/04/19/a-note-about-git-commit-messages.html

It's a margin was added to help wrapping the commit messages. In the
future, it may be feasible to have preferences for the margin width
and visibility.
From my POV, this should be closed as WONTFIX, sorry Lars.
Comment 2 Lars Vogel CLA 2010-08-09 16:17:56 EDT 
Ok for me, but I expect that other find this also strange. Setting but to WONTFIX.
Comment 3 Stefan Lay CLA 2010-08-10 03:25:19 EDT 
I would suggest to adapt the user documentation http://wiki.eclipse.org/EGit/User_Guide to this change. 

We should generally try to always maintain the docu directly after a user relevant change is committed.
