[PATCH 1/1] git-prompt: improve cherry-pick/revert detection

From
PGPhillip Wood via GitGitGadget <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

Message-ID
<0f04fa2930d5cc7dfd2a5c5185573f7ecefa6055.1561990865.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

From: Phillip Wood <phillip.wood@dunelm.org.uk>

If the user commits or resets a conflict resolution in the middle of a sequence of cherry-picks or reverts then CHERRY_PICK_HEAD/REVERT_HEAD will be removed and so in the absence of those files we need to check .git/sequencer/todo to see if there is a cherry-pick or revert in progress.
