commit: skip discarding the index if there is no pre-commit hook

Kevin Willford · gitster · commit 680ee550d721 · 2017-08-16T10:19:46.000-07:00
If there is not a pre-commit hook, there is no reason to discard
the index and reread it.

This change checks to presence of a pre-commit hook and then only
discards the index if there was one.
