Bing! Got it in one. :-)

When we leave the file behind after an aborted commit (a conflict problem in
my case), then we should process the SVN: markers out of it. I'll go and
annotate the issue about leaving msg files.
No way should we strip them from provided files. That could damage whatever
a user may put in there. It is the EDITOR behavior where we defined SVN:
stripping.
