Then some proposal to define what the behaviour should be is needed,
the consensus implements and then documented.

This space below the three-dash-line is the best place to describe
the difference between the previous version and this one.  It seems
that the above text is not such a "here are what was bad/missing in
v1 that got fixed/extended", or a copy of the log message (like many
patches that come from GGG has).  I am a bit puzzled what it is, but
for now let's pretend there wasn't any text below the three-dash-line
and read on.

So, it used to be that after failing to apply a commit, unless we
are at the last step, we gave a message and left the loop under the
prepare-p4-only mode.  We did not do anything special under the
prepare-p4-only mode if applyCommit returned a success.

Now, after successfully applying, we leave the loop under the
prepare-p4-only mode.  We give the message only when we are not at
the last step.

So..., what happens when the first step fails to apply and then the
user tells us to skip the commit?  We'll go on to the next commit
and then applyCommit() may say 'ok' this time around.  Does that
count as "processed only the first commit and we are done"?
