Hello gitters Steps to reproduce: $ git commit --allow-empty -m ‘test’ $ git revert HEAD The latter fails silently, leaving HEAD pointing at the commit created by the first command. A subsequent `git commit --allow-empty` has the revert message as the default commit message when starting the editor. Hope this is the right place for bugs.
