"git commit paths..." has been a short-hand for "git commit -o paths..."
since v1.3.0 and let you create a commit skipping any other updated state
staged in the index. The "--only" semantics (aka "partial commit") is
always wrong during a conflicted merge resolution, and we rejected both
"git commit paths..." and "git commit -o paths..." forms during a merge.
On the other hand, "git commit -i paths..." (aka "an also commit", which
asks to commit what you staged in the index, and also the paths you may or
may not have git-add'ed) is accepted, as it is a way to register the
contents you fixed up to the index and commit the result.
This makes "git commit paths..." form default to "git commit -i paths"
semantics only during a merge, restoring the pre-v1.3.0 behaviour. The
codepath to create a non-merge commit is not affected and still defaults
to the "--only" semantics.
