Before we get ahead of ourselves:

1) this has nothing to do with the patch series at hand, and

2) if we were to introduce `git continue`, we would need to think long and
   hard about the following issues:

	I) are there potentially ambiguous <relevant-cmd>s that the user
	   may want to continue?

	II) what about options? You can say `git rebase --continue
	    --no-ff`, for example, but not `git cherry-pick --continue
	    --no-ff`...

	III) Would it not be confusing to have a subcommand `continue`
	     that does *not* serve a *single* purpose? It's kinda flying
	     into the face of the Unix philosophy.

Ciao,
