I'm not sure that's the case, my understanding is that for an
interactive rebase unless you give '--keep-empty' then any empty commits
will be commented out in the todo list and therefore dropped unless
they're uncommented when editing the list. The third case happens when a
commit becomes empty when it's rebased (i.e. the original commit is not
empty), I'm not sure what the am backend does for this. cherry-pick has
'--keep-redundant-commits' for this case but that has never been added
to rebase.
