"git fmt-merge-msg" SIGSEGV

"git fmt-merge-msg" SIGSEGV

[Linus Torvalds]

Ok, this is a _really_ stupid case, and I don't think it matters, but hey, 
we should never SIGSEGV.

Steps to reproduce:

	mkdir duh
	cd duh
	git init-db
	git-fmt-merge-msg < /dev/null

will cause a SIGSEGV in cmd_fmt_merge_msg(), because we're doing a 
strncmp() with a NULL current_branch.

And yeah, it's an insane schenario, and no, it doesn't really matter. The 
only reason I noticed was that a broken version of my "git pull" into an 
empty directory would cause this.

This silly patch just replaces the SIGSEGV with a controlled exit with an 
error message.
