`git commit --fixup=reword:<commit>` creates an empty "amend!" commit
that will reword <commit> without changing its contents when it is
rebased with --autosquash.
Apart from ignoring staged changes it works similarly to
`--fixup=amend:<commit>`.
Example usage:
$ git commit --fixup=reword:HEAD~3
$ git commit --fixup=reword:HEAD~3 -m "new commit message"
