Hmm, wouldn't it be more consistent to either say

	If you wish to commit it anyway, use

		git commit --allow-empty && git cherry-pick --continue

	If you wish to skip this commit, use

		git reset && git cherry-pick --continue

Or

	If you wish to commit it anyway, use

		git commit --allow-empty
	
	If you wish to skip this commit, use

		git reset

	Then "git cherry-pick --continue" will resume cherry-picking
	the remaining commits.

?
