That's exactly the same as just doing a "git rebase -i <commit>^" where
'commit' is the thing you want to amend, and then just picking that for 'r'
('reword').
In general, I'd prefer people not do it, unless there is a very strong
reason to reword the commit message. I'm not sure just an ack is
necessarily reason enough.
Anyway, pulled.
