The to-do list command `reword` replays a commit like `pick` but lets
the user also edit the commit's log message. If `--keep-empty` is
passed as option to git-rebase--interactive, empty commits ought to
be replayed without complaints. However, if the users chooses to
reword an empty commit by changing the respective to-do list entry
from
pick fa1afe1 Empty commit
to
reword fa1afe1 Empty commit
, then git-rebase--interactive suddenly fails to replay the empty
commit. This is especially counterintuitive because `reword` is
thought of as a `pick` that alters the log message in some way but
nothing more and the unchanged to-do list entry would not fail.
Handle `reword` by cherry-picking the named commit and editing the
log message using
git commit --allow-empty --amend
instead of
git commit --amend.
Add test.
