improve alwayscommit=false mode
Now changes are staged into the branch's index, but not committed, which avoids growing a large journal. And sync and merge always explicitly commit, ensuring that even when they do nothing else, they commit the staged changes. Added a flag file to indicate that the branch's journal contains uncommitted changes. (Could use git ls-files, but don't want to run that every time.) In the future, this ability to have uncommitted changes staged in the journal might be used on remotes after a series of oneshot commands.
