Thanks for the quick response.  While your patch does fix the bug I
reported, unfortunately it introduces a new one:  t7502-commit.sh
fails at me with the following:


*   ok 17: a SIGTERM should break locks

* expecting success: 

        git rev-parse second master >expect &&
        test_must_fail git merge second master &&
        git checkout master g &&
        EDITOR=: git commit -a &&
        git cat-file commit HEAD | sed -n -e "s/^parent //p" -e
"/^$/q" >actual &&
        test_cmp expect actual
