I think that command assumed you have changes that you wish to add to
the last commit (so you couldn't just use it to reword a commit).  You
start preparing a new commit using `vc-next-action', then when the
buffer appears you M-x vc-git-log-edit-toggle-amend to indicate that
this commit will be amending the previous one.  So the commit message
gets replaced by that of the previous message.  The rest just involves
finishing up like any other commit.

That would be good, because it would also allow easier to reword a
commit that doesn't require any code changes.
