If hooks/pre-commit acts based upon the changes to be checked in rather than just the resulting content, the script needs to know which commit to use. For a normal commit, this is HEAD, but when amending this is HEAD~1. So, this modifies commit.c to pass $1 as normal|amend depending upon the commit type. Existing scripts are unaffected as they did not expect any argument so will silently ignore this extra bit of info.
