title: Git - appending to an upcoming commit message
body: <p>I'm looking for a way to achieve the following workflow:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>I make a small change to my code  </li>
  <li>I append text describing the
  previous code change to a message that
  will be attached to my <strong>next
  commit</strong></li>
  <li>Repeat steps 1 and 2 until ready to
  commit</li>
  <li>Commit with full message text
  automatically attached (<em>possibly with an option to append a final text to the message</em>) </li>
  </ol>
  
  <p><strong>EDIT:</strong>
  The message would only apply to a single commit.  This would enable you to make continuous additions to your upcoming commit message.</p>
  
  <p>Currently, the best solution is to commit on the first change, and then <strong>commit --amend</strong> on each following change and modify the previous message.</p>
