While I agree this code is unreachable, just because it was unused when it was added does not mean it is unused now. It would be helpful for the commit message to explain that there are no "break" or "goto" statements in the loop body and therefore this code is only reachable when the loop terminates because todo_list->current == todo_list->nr

this remains valid after phillip's pending series, through it becomes
marginally harder to prove (c.f. "sequencer: factor out part of
pick_commits()").
