I have in mind (for example) someone who fired up `svn commit' and
halfway through writing the log message thinks "Oh crap, I didn't mean
to commit that." Presumably, such a person who be careful to say no to
the confirmation request. :-)
However, since I was just informed (if I understood correctly) that
unsaved changes to the log would prompt an abort question, I guess
that takes care of that concern, since I can always make sure to exit
my editor with unsaved changes.
