This "In the next commit" phrasing is dangerous, since a person can
build on top of your first commit at any time. :) I would say:
A later patch will teach "git commit" without -c to use
CHERRY_PICK_HEAD to set the authorship automatically. Note

Nit: GIT_CHERRY_PICK_HELP is not just for rebase --interactive but
for arbitrary porcelain that wants to take care of the commit itself
(see v1.5.4-rc0~106^2~1, revert/cherry-pick: Allow overriding the
help text by the calling Porcelain, 2007-11-28).
The conservative thing to do is indeed to remove CHERRY_PICK_HEAD in
this case, I suppose. But I'd like to have the CHERRY_PICK_HEAD to
get the --amend safety when rebasing. I can send a separate patch
for it if you'd like.

Some more tests. Yes, they are repetitive. A patch on top to factor
out the setup into a function might help, but that feels out of scope
here.
With whatever subset of the below looks good,
