Why have amend do the same as edit? If you add an 'amend' one instead
make it drop you into an editor to change the commit message. That's a
workflow I often use. Often times I do not have a proper commit
message when I commit (sometimes it is the result of "git commit -a -m
"tmp"). To me having an 'amend' command that allows one to edit the
commit message would make sense a lot :).

And as such, have edit do what it currently does.
