like a normal tree, you don't want people to clobber existing work.  i think 
you'd get an error currently though and you'd have to force it to go through 
by using --force.

i'm guessing if you edit a note on an existing commit, there's no way to 
"merge" that change, so a non-fast-forward update is the only option.
