Subject: [PATCH] commit: tweak empty cherry pick advice for sequencer
When we refuse to make an empty commit, we check whether we
are in a cherry-pick in order to give better advice on how
to proceed. We instruct the user to repeat the commit with
"--allow-empty" to force the commit, or to use "git reset"
to skip it and abort the cherry-pick.
This works fine when we are cherry-picking a single commit.
When we are using the sequencer to cherry-pick multiple
items, though, using "git reset" is not good advice. It does
not skip the commit (you must run "cherry-pick --continue"
to keep going), but nor does it abort the cherry-pick (the
.sequencer directory still exists).
Let's teach commit to tell when the sequencer is in use, and
to mention "cherry-pick --continue" in that case.

The advice in the multi case could eventually change to "cherry-pick
--skip" if and when it exists.
