[PATCH 0/2] Update the die() preserve-merges messages to help some users

["Johannes Schindelin via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

This small update to the die() preserve-merges messages is a response to the
reported edge case in the Git-for-Windows googlegroups thread
[https://groups.google.com/g/git-for-windows/c/3jMWbBlXXHM] where even git
rebase --continue would die.

It is most relevant for Windows because Visual Studio still offers the
option to run git pull --preserve, therefore Git for Windows already applied
these patches. The improvements are not specific to Windows, though, and
should therefore also get into core Git, albeit at a more leisurely pace.

This is a companion patch series to
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/pull/3708

  rebase: help user when dying with preserve-merges`
  rebase: `preserve` is also a pull option, tell dying users
