Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Commit with gitui allow only one commit line, without commit description (like is allowed with commit -m command)

Describe the solution you'd like
Allow to add a description to the commit: with a new description field, or simply with a multi-line commit

If you press the Open editor key (default is ^e) while the commit window is open, you can edit the commit message using a text editor (similar to what git commit does).

I'm here for this same reason. A message in the commit window saying the user to press ctrl+e for multi-line commits, while we make something better, wouldn't hurt.

marking as good first issue, since its just about finishing the draft PR #509
