After I modify the interface of print_advice() in the way suggested by
Junio, I can provide a
help_msg parameter for print_advice(), and maybe we can use it to
provide better advice later.
Something like this:

+static void print_advice(struct replay_opts *opts, const char *help_msgs)
+{
+       if (help_msgs)
+               fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", help_msgs);
+       else if (opts->no_commit)
+               advise(_("after resolving the conflicts, mark the
corrected paths\n"
+                        "with 'git add <paths>' or 'git rm <paths>'"));
+       else
+               advise(_("after resolving the conflicts, mark the
corrected paths\n"
+                        "with 'git add <paths>' or 'git rm <paths>'\n"
+                        "and commit the result with 'git commit'"));
 }
