Undocumented option '--rebasing' to git-am is internal option changing
git-am behavior to be better used by git-rebase, namely it does not
change commit message even if it doesn't follow git commit message
convention, for example if it begins not with single line summary
of commit, separated by empty line, but by multi-line paragraph.
See also t/t3405-rebase-malformed.sh

Although I am not sure if when rebase is rewritten using git-sequencer
implementing "git am --rebasing" would be truly needed.  On the other
hand side it would be nice to have some _documented_ option which would
allow to git-am mail messages with commits not following git commit
messages convention...
