The result of filter-branch seems to have one empty line as the body
(i.e. "echo X; git cat-file commit A; echo Y" will show two blank
lines between the committer line and Y), while "--allow-empty-message"
does not leave any body (i.e. the same will give you only one blank
line there).
Was this test verifying the right thing in the first place, I have
to wonder.
IOW,
git commit --allow-empty --cleanup=verbatim -m "$LF" &&
would be more faithful conversion of the original (and hopefully
just as performant).

Quite an improvement ;-)
