 Flakebox. Git's `git commit --no-verify` is also available as a one-shot
 alternative.
 
+### Disabling commit integration
+
+Set `git.enable = false` in the Flakebox configuration to disable the complete
+Git commit integration. Flakebox then does not generate or install its
+`pre-commit` or `commit-msg` hooks, generate its commit-message template, or set
+Git's `commit.template` configuration. The existing `git.pre-commit.enable`,
+`git.commit-msg.enable`, and `git.commit-template.enable` options remain
+available for partial control when `git.enable` is true.
+
+This option does not clean up state installed by an earlier configuration.
+After changing it, remove the old generated files:
+
+```console
+rm -f misc/git-hooks/pre-commit \
+  misc/git-hooks/commit-msg \
+  misc/git-hooks/commit-template.txt
+```
+
+Remove installed hooks only after confirming they are Flakebox-owned:
+
+```console
+hooks_dir="$(git rev-parse --git-common-dir)/hooks"
+ls -l "$hooks_dir/pre-commit" "$hooks_dir/commit-msg"
+rm -f "$hooks_dir/pre-commit" "$hooks_dir/commit-msg"
+```
+
+Finally, remove the template setting only when it still has the Flakebox value:
+
+```console
+if [ "$(git config --get commit.template || true)" = \
+  "misc/git-hooks/commit-template.txt" ]; then
+  git config --unset commit.template
+fi
+```
