While you have "git am" open, how about adding an "git am --abort"
which nukes the .dotest aka .git/rebase directory, and resets HEAD
back to the original position?

And another nice shortcut would be "git am --forceapply" which applies
the patch, leaving .rej files for the user to resolve by hand.  That
makes it easier for the user to manually run patch while passing a
filename in .dotest aka .git/rebase.

These two additions would make the git-am workflow much smoother.
