Perhaps we should make it configuration option instead? I usually use
"git commit -a -s"; I add -s anyway, so adding -a is not that much more.

By the way, if I understand correctly git-resolve is meant as restricted
git-update-index, which can _only_ mark file as resolved (and probably
check for merge markers, unless --force'd).
