[PATCH] merge: Honor prepare-commit-msg return code

From

prepare-commit-msg hook is run when committing to prepare the log message. If the exit-status is non-zero, the commit should be aborted.

While the script is run before committing a successful merge, the exit-status is ignored and a non-zero exit doesn't abort the commit.

Abort the commit if prepare-commit-msg returns with a non-zero status when committing a successful merge.
