When `-c` says "edit the commit message" it's not clear what will be edited. The original's commit message or the replacement's message or a combination of the two. Word it such that it states more precisely what exactly will be edited. While at it, also drop the jarring period and capitalization, neither of which is otherwise present in the message.
