Some non-judgemental descriptive output like

	$ git commit --amend --no-edit
	No changes.
	$

would address this case, without bothering people who are doing it
intentionally.  So I think there's room for a simple improvement here.

I do that to refresh the committer timestamp.

I do, too.  The proposal is, paraphrasing,

	$ git commit --amend --no-edit
	Ah, I see that you want me to refresh the committer timestamp.
	Done, as requested.
	$

Ah, OK then.  I somehow misread "No changes." as an error message.
