commit-template: distinguish status information unconditionallyks/commit-assuming-only-warning-removal
The commit template adds the status information without adding a new line to distinguish them in the absence of optional parts. This results in difficulty in interpreting it's content, specifically for inexperienced users. Unconditionally, add new lines to separate the status message from the other parts of the commit-template to make it more readable.
