git rebase --continue error message

git rebase --continue error message

[Lea Wiemann]

The error message for git rebase --continue is misleading if no rebase 
is in progress:

$ git rebase --abort
No rebase in progress?
$ git rebase --continue
You must edit all merge conflicts and then
mark them as resolved using git add

Anyone care to fix it?
