No, it's when the editor process exits without error, not when the
file is saved. (You can save it N times, but you only exit once.)

If you haven't realized by the end of your log message that you don't
want to commit, I'm not sure that adding Yet Another Confirmation
Moment is going to do a lot of good. Your fingers will quickly
habituate to answering 'y' to that too, and you'll be right back where
you started.
