Merge branch 'ak/commit-only-allow-empty'
"git commit --allow-empty --only" (no pathspec) with dirty index
ought to be an acceptable way to create a new commit that does not

needed it so far.
* ak/commit-only-allow-empty:
commit: remove 'Clever' message for --only --amend
commit: make --only --allow-empty work without paths
