If you use Emacs and Magit you can use the “update” or “add” 
snippets with Yasnippet, i.e. within the commit message window 
opened by magit just type “add” and hit TAB to expand the snippet.

You can also use etc/committer.scm, which is part of the source 
checkout.  It was written to help with mass-upgrades of CRAN 
packages; it will not do the right thing in all cases.  Notably, 
it has some problems separating consecutive package additions.
