Not so much hiding as not having the information to present, at least
not the easy way, since the mail is split at the beginning of git-am
and never stored in $GIT_DIR. By the time this command is run, the
mail is already gone. Someone could of course update git-am to keep a
copy of the mail and improve this option.
