When rewinding the head, stash away the value of the original
HEAD in ORIG_HEAD, just like git-resolve-script does.

Since rewinding the head is a dangerous operation, saving it
somewhere just in case would make life a bit safer.  This also
lets you do:

    $ git commit
    ... "oops, I forgot to include that fix."
    $ git reset HEAD^1
    ... edit away and update-cache
    $ git commit -m ORIG_HEAD

to reuse the old commit message.
