(I mentioned this in response to the commit, but also will do so here
for completeness.)

The other place we're inconsistent is the template shown in the editor
used for log messages when 'svn ci' is run without -F or -m. I
believe it still shows 'AM'. (In fact, this was one of the earliest
bugs I attempted to fix when I first started hacking Subversion
several years ago. Ah, nostalgia.)
