The existing tests cover the positive case (i.e. as long as the user says
"yes" to the "do you really want to send this message that lacks subject",
the message is sent) of this feature, but the feature itself needs its own
test to verify the negative case (i.e. does it correctly stop if the user
says "no"?)

Gives the --short output format to post 1.7.0 "git commit --dry-run" that
is similar to that of post 1.7.0 "git status".
The tip one is not in 'next' as I have been hoping that somebody may want
to change the code to make it unnecessary, but it does not seem to be
happening, so probably it should also go to 'next'.
