I had to read the title and then the log twice before understanding
that the above is not "change the complaint message" (i.e. "reword
complaints" spelled incorrectly) but is a description of the current
behaviour (i.e. "the command complains when 'reword' is used on an
empty commit") that is not accompanied by an evaluation ("ok, it
complains; are you saying it is a good thing or a bad thing?") or an
action ("if it is a bad thing, what are you doing about it?").
Perhaps
rebase -i: allow rewording an empty commit
or something?
