            Bug ID: 230195
           Summary: Provide a way to update the commit message with an
                    updated list of changed files/functions
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: dvh at apple.com

When the author needs to make additional changes to the commit, we generally need to make changes to the commit message with the updated list with changes in files/functions.
Currently, that process is very manual and may involve:
- saving the current commit message un-committing then re-committing and merge the old commit message with the new generated commit message template.
- or writing manually the list of new changes in files/functions.

This process should be a little more automated.

For that, we can make changes in commit-log-editor to allow updates of the commit message with a generated list of changed files/functions.
Since there may already be comment of the author or this list of files/functions, this updated list needs to be appended at the bottom for the author to merge the content.
