This uses exact metadata when creating the commit object, hopefully
reconstructing the commit with the exact same SHA1.

Note: In order to be forwards compatible with new commit formats we
may want a new helper for creating a commit with the exact metadata
that is present (and then validating the result) as opposed to trying
to parse the metadata and pass it piecewise to commit_tree().
