This check is causing more trouble than it is worth. I intended it to catch the edge case where after a series of changes and undos, the code is only different from the previous commit in spacing and formatting, and a prettier pass reverts it so there is no difference, causing an empty commit.
This causes problems for people trying to merge and other cases, and isn't really worth it to try to avoid the occasional empty commit, which will be squashed in the merge to master anyway.
