Fail on the presence of fixups

[dmtucker]

We use fixup/squash commits during PRs, and they should always be squashed before merging. It's not uncommon to forget to do that and end up with fixups in the permanent history, though. Setting general.ignore-fixup-commits=false is not adequate for preventing the presence of fixups before merge because gitlint will still pass if they meet all commit criteria. I would like to request a way to have gitlint fail if even well-formed fixup/squash/other WIP/TODO commits are detected (if there isn't already a way to do that).

Ah, this is doable with

-c general.ignore-fixup-commits=false -c general.ignore-squash-commits=false -c title-must-not-contain-word.words='fixup,squash'

Interestingly, this does not seem to work:

-c general.ignore-fixup-commits=false -c general.ignore-squash-commits=false -c title-must-not-contain-word.words='fixup!,squash!'
