This implements a new ack! action for git rebase -i
It is essentially a middle ground between fixup! and squash!:
- commits are squashed silently without editor being started
- commit logs are concatenated (with action line being discarded)
- because of the above, empty commits aren't discarded,
  their log is also included.

I am using it as follows:
	git am -s < mailbox #creates first commit
	hack ...
	get mail with Ack
	git commit --allow-empty -m `cat <<-EOF
	ack! first

	Acked-by: maintainer
	EOF`
	repeat cycle
	git rebase --autosquash -i origin/master
	before public branch push
