[PATCH] cherry-pick -x: improve handling of one-liner commit messages
git cherry-pick -x normally just appends the "cherry picked from commit"
line at the end of the message, which is fine. However, in case the
original commit message had only one line, first append a newline,
otherwise the second line won't be empty, which is against
recommendations.
