One of the conversions in 500433edf49 ("merge-ort: convert more error()
cases to path_msg()", 2024-06-10) accidentally lost the early return.
Restore it.

Thanks, this looks good to me.

f19b9165 (merge-ort: convert more error() cases to path_msg(),
2024-06-19) is what I have, date is different (and object name is,
too, obviously).

And funny thing is that your base-commit points at the latter.  I
briefly wondered if we can somehow automate the generation of
reference in the log message, but the base is likely to be the tip
of the topic branch that has been accepted upstream, and the commit
being fixed up can be something below, not at, that tip, so it
wouldn't be like a simple and silly "compare base-commit and the
commit we talk about in the proposed log message".

A commit-msg hook that scans for names that look like commit object names in the
message, and

 - makes sure that these commits are reachable from HEAD (the goal
   is to make sure they are reachable from the resulting commit),
   and possibly

 - makes sure that these commits are reachable from @{u} (the goal
   is to catch references of unpublished commits)

might be a possibility, but such criteria are probably highly
workflow specific, so needs to be highly customizable if we wanted
to make such a feature as a part of what we ship.

Thanks.  I saw Peff's earlier message and the change exactly matches
my expectation.  Will queue (with adjustments to the log message).

Doh, sorry, I forgot to update the reference after rebasing.

Right, and a commit-hook might not catch it either.  Since my original
commit was based on the one I referenced in my commit message, the
original commit creation was fine, but I realized after creating it
that I should have created my commit on top of your applied copy, so I
needed to rebase it.  Since rebase sometimes tries to avoid invoking
`git commit` (as per sequencer.c's try_to_commit()), that'd likely
bypass the check anyway.

An alternative here is that I've thought about adding an ability for
rebase to update commit references in the commit messages it
rebases...but that may not have helped either in this particular case
since I was only rebasing the tip commit rather than the few commits
behind it as well.
