This last sentence sounds somewhat worrysome. Does that mean some
commit that was previously disallowed (which ones?) is still
forbidden by "commit" without "--dry-run" (which is correct--we are
not interested in changing the behaviour of the main codepath), but
"--dry-run", even with this update, will say "OK you will make a
meaningful commit" by exiting with 0 for such disallowed commit?
