cherry-pick: fix docs describing handling of empty commits

Browse Source 
Commit b27cfb0 (git-cherry-pick: Add keep-redundant-commits
option, 2012-04-20), added the --keep-redundant-commits
option, and switched the default behavior (without that
option) to silently ignore empty commits. Later, the second
half of that commit was reverted in ac2b0e8 (cherry-pick:
regression fix for empty commits, 2012-05-29), but the
documentation added for --keep-redundant-commits was never
updated to match. Let's do so now.

--keep-redundant-commits::
If a commit being cherry picked duplicates a commit already in the
current history, it will become empty. By default these
redundant commits are ignored. This option overrides that behavior and
redundant commits cause `cherry-pick` to stop so the user can
examine the commit. This option overrides that behavior and
creates an empty commit object. Implies `--allow-empty`.
