Is it?  I have a COMMIT_EDITMSG lying around in just about every git
repository I have and couldn't find any unlink() in builtin/commit.c
or elsewhere that would remove it.  In fact, not deleting it seems to
be the desired bahavior, because many tests in t7502-commit.sh depend
on this file still being present after a successful 'git commit'.
