I'd appreciate feedback on my series from the 2nd of January,
especially part 3/4 (Subject: [PATCH 3/4] Improve "nothing to commit"
part of status output). This is already part of next.

It removes the message if there really is nothing to commit and
replaces it by a generic pointer to git add and git commit if there
are pending changes in the working directory.
