Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/f/git-rewrite-commits/issues/8

No checks are performed on the OpenAI API key.

If the key is invalid, a backup branch is created but the user gets "Keeping original message" for all commits.
This might lead the user to think that the original commit messages are considered "good enough".
