commit: correctly detect the start of the commit message The end of the header is signaled by to consecutive LFs and the commit message starts immediately after. Jumping over LFs at the start of the message is a bug and leads to creating different commits if when rebuilding history. This also fixes an empty commit message being returned as "\n".
