I would be confused to mistake that "git commit -A $args" would do something similar to "git add -A && git commit $args". I do my fair share of amends during the day, and I've never felt the need for a short-hand, but perhaps that is just me. I am wondering if "-E" (stands for 'edit', not 'A or M are out, and the next letter in amend is E') is understandable and memorable enough---after all, it is "editing" an existing commit, and the edit is done in a big and different way than the existing "commit --edit". But perhaps that reasoning is a bit too cute. I dunno.
