When a rebase, merge, cherry-pick or revert is in progress, the working copy auto-fills the commit message box from `MERGE_MSG`, `rebase-merge/message` or the commit being replayed. If that operation then finishes or is aborted outside SourceGit (e.g. from the terminal), the loaded text stayed in the box, got persisted as the last commit message on close, and reappeared on every later open of the repository. Remember which message was auto-loaded and clear it once the in-progress state disappears, unless the user has edited the text in the meantime. Signed-off-by: Daniil Tatianin <99danilt@gmail.com>
