After making commits (either by pulling or doing their own work) after a
failed "am", the user will be reminded by next "am" invocation that there
was a failed "am" that the user needs to decide to resolve or to get rid
of the old "am" attempt. The "am --abort" option was meant to help the
latter. However, it rewinded the HEAD back to the beginning of the failed
"am" attempt, discarding commits made (perhaps by mistake) since.

0af0ac7 (Move MERGE_RR from .git/rr-cache/ into .git/) moved the
location of MERGE_RR but I found a few references to the old
location.

format-patch is most commonly used for multiple patches at once when
sending a patchset, in which case we want to number the patches; on
the other hand, single patches are not usually expected to be
numbered.
In other words, the typical behavior expected from format-patch is the
one obtained by enabling autonumber, so we set it to be the default.
Users that want to disable numbering for a particular patchset can do
so with the existing -N command-line switch. Users that want to
change the default behavior can use the format.numbering config key.

git-am output can be confusing, because the subject of the applied
patch can look like the rest of a sentence starting with "Applying".
The added colon should make this clearer.

In 3-way merge, "am" will let the index with unmerged path waiting
for us to resolve conflicts and continue. But if we want to --skip
instead, "am" refuses to continue because of the dirty index.
With this patch, "am" will clean the index without touching files
locally modified, before continuing.

After failing to apply patches in the middle of a series, "git am --abort"
lets you go back to the original commit.
