Documentation: --amend cannot be combined with -c/-C/-F.
We used to get the following confusing error message: $ git commit --amend -a -m foo Option -m cannot be combined with -c/-C/-F This is because --amend cannot be combined with -c/-C/-F, which makes sense, because they try to handle the same log message in different ways. So update the documentation to reflect this. Signed-off-by: Peter Eriksen <s022018@student.dtu.dk> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
