Hello again.

  P.S.: i can confirm the surroundings are fixed in 2.25.0-rc0!

Looking into the archives it could be addressed for upcoming
release already, please ignore then.  But with 2.24.1, if i do

  git cherry-pick --allow-empty --edit SHA1 SHA1...

i end up with

  Cherry-pick currently in progress.

  nothing to commit, working tree clean
  The previous cherry-pick is now empty, possibly due to conflict resolution.
  If you wish to commit it anyway, use:

      git commit --allow-empty

  and then use:

      git cherry-pick --continue

  to resume cherry-picking the remaining commits.
  If you wish to skip this commit, use:

      git cherry-pick --skip

I.e., i edit the commit message, the commit message has been
modified and the valid is ok, but the above appears.
