Convert links in the commit message and comments, to be rendered as clickable XHTML links for easy navigation.
Currently only http, https, ftp and git are recognized. And only links that are not broken across lines are recognized.
I have used a very simple regex to match links: It matches anything after http:// or https:// or ftp:// or git://, till it reaches a space character or '<' character (to prevent it sometimes matching a tag at the end of the link). Let me know if we would need a more exhaustive regex pattern.
Closes: #591
