I discovered a bug in Git a while ago where if one is using
commit.cleanup = scissors, if making a commit after a merge conflict,
the scissors line will be placed after the `Conflicts:` section. As a
result, a careless Git user (e.g. me) may accidentally commit the
`Conflicts:` section.

Here is a test case to replicate the behaviour:

	mkdir test
	cd test/
	git init
	git config commit.cleanup scissors
	touch a
	git add a
	git commit -m 'test'
	echo a > a
	git commit -am 'test2'
	git checkout -b new HEAD^
	echo b > a
	git commit -am 'test3'
	git merge master
	echo c > a
	git add a
	git commit # look at the commit message here

And the resulting message that's sent to the text editor:

	Merge branch 'master' into new

	# Conflicts:
	#	a
	# ------------------------ >8 ------------------------
	# Do not modify or remove the line above.
	# Everything below it will be ignored.
	#
	# It looks like you may be committing a merge.
	# If this is not correct, please remove the file
	#	.git/MERGE_HEAD
	# and try again.


	# Please enter the commit message for your changes. Lines starting
	# with '#' will be kept; you may remove them yourself if you want to.
	# An empty message aborts the commit.
	#
	# On branch new
	# All conflicts fixed but you are still merging.
	#
	# Changes to be committed:
	#	modified:   a
	#

With this fix, the message becomes the following:

	Merge branch 'master' into new

	# ------------------------ >8 ------------------------
	# Do not modify or remove the line above.
	# Everything below it will be ignored.
	#
	# Conflicts:
	#	a
	#
	# It looks like you may be committing a merge.
	# If this is not correct, please remove the file
	#	.git/MERGE_HEAD
	# and try again.


	# Please enter the commit message for your changes. Lines starting
	# with '#' will be kept; you may remove them yourself if you want to.
	# An empty message aborts the commit.
	#
	# On branch new
	# All conflicts fixed but you are still merging.
	#
	# Changes to be committed:
	#	modified:   a
	#

Let me know what you think of the change. Of course, documentation and
testing will come after this leaves the RFC phase.
