Yes, that is what I meant in my earlier suggestion.  More like

    char *hint_cleanup_all =
	_("Please enter the ... , and an empty message aborts the commit.\n");
    char *hint_cleanup_space =
	_("Please enter the ... if you want to.\n"
          "An empty message aborts the commit.\n");

    if (allow_empty_message) {
            hint_cleanup_all = _("...");
            hint_cleanup_space = _("...");
    }

    ... the if/elseif cascade in which calls to status_printf() are made
    ... using these variables

Thanks.
