The more I think about it, the more I think we should either not warn at
all on duplicate commits, or have a separate config variable.
It's rare to duplicate by mistake, and when you do so, it's already easy
to notice: you get conflicts, and you can git rebase --skip the second
occurence. Accidentally dropped commits are another story: it's rather
easy to cut-and-forget-to-paste, and the consequence currently is silent
data loss ...
