Subject: RFC: git status --amend
Date: Tue, 31 Mar 2015 16:59:27 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <551AB64F.4030400@cs-ware.de> (raw)

Hi,

for frontends or scripts it would be helpful to be able to use "git
status" for getting the repository status compared to HEAD~1 instead of
only HEAD (as provided by "git commit --amend" in the pre-filled commit
message).

Thus, I'm suggesting to add a "--amend" parameter (or a parameter with a
better naming) to "git status".

What do you think of this idea?
