I'm actually sort of against changing the behavior of git-commit
-f to mean "delete the file". We never did that before. Users
might get surprised when their file goes away!
What about this change instead? We make cherry-pick/revert
use the same temporary file as merge, which is under .git/
(something Alex mentioned he wanted). I think the use of ".msg"
in cherry-pick/revert has always just been a bug, and not a feature,
so I'm really not against changing things around like this.
