Subject: notes: empty notes should be shown by 'git log'
X-Git-Tag: v2.3.0-rc0~98^2~1
X-Git-Url: https://git.lorimer.id.au/gitweb.git/diff_plain/8a4acd699536c518c9245714d6175aa39d13eb9d?ds=inline;hp=--cc

notes: empty notes should be shown by 'git log'

If the user has gone through the trouble of explicitly adding an empty
note, then "git log" should not silently skip it (as if it didn't exist).
