Historically, "git status" needed to prefix each output line with '#' so that the output could be added as comment to the commit message. This prefix comment has no real purpose when "git status" is ran from the command-line, and this may distract users from the real content. Disable this prefix comment by default, and make it re-activable for users needing backward compatibility with status.displayCommentPrefix. Obviously, "git commit" ignores status.displayCommentPrefix and keeps the comment unconditionnaly when writing to COMMIT_EDITMSG (but not when writing to stdout for an error message or with --dry-run).
