commit: warn the user when a commit already exists Sometimes, a commit will result in an exact match of a preexisting commit, and if that commit isn't a branch head, hg will incorrectly note that it created a new head. Instead, we should warn the user that commit already existed in the repository. In practice, this bug is rather uncommon, and will only occur when the usr explicitly sets the date. Please note that this commit contains an API change to cmdutil.commitstatus() Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D9257
