The command line used to recreate root commits uses `-C` to suppress
the log message editor. This is unnecessarily confusing, though,
because that suppression is a secondary effect of the option. The
main purpose of `-C` is to pull the metadata from another commit, but
here we know that this is a noop, since we are amending a commit just
created from the same data.

At the time `-C` was introduced, git-commit did not yet have a
documented `--no-edit`, and this was a reasonable way to get the
desired behavior. Switch it to use `--no-edit` to make the intended
effect more obvious.
