geordi commit: Pass arbitrary arguments to the git command

[makmic]

It would be nice if geordi would relay every unused argument for geordi commit to the underlying git command. This can be helpful i.e. to create an initially empty commit with the sole purpose to be squashed upon:

git checkout -b my-new-branch
geordi commit
# nothing to commit, working directory clean

If geordi would relay my arguments to git, the following would be possible:

git checkout -b my-new-branch
geordi commit --alow-empty
# [my-new-branch] Pivotal Story Message here

Thanks @makmic for your suggestion. I think it would make sense to allow this in Geordi.

As you can see there are some more issues open, which partially have a higher priority. That means it could take a while until this feature will be implemented.

Nevertheless I will be happy to review a PR in case you have time to implement this on your own.

Thank you for looking into and priorizing the issue. I do not expect to free up time in the near future to create a PR by myself, but I'll let you know if i do 😉

@makmic In the just released 2.7.0, geordi commit will make empty commits by default (but print a warning). Arguments are forwarded to git nontheless and allow further customization.

Thank you for looking into this! :-)
