I was already on my way to fix this when I encountered this mail 30
minutes ago, but when I tried to implement the regression test, I took a
step back: apart from "disk full" and "pilot error", there is really no
good reason for the `message-squash` file not being able to be written.
And in both cases, a benign `git status` will show the latest command,
i.e. the one that failed.
In other words: I now deem this such a corner case that it is not worth
spending more time on the error message than we already did...
