Why not just use an alias for this?  I do:
git config alias.fixup "commit --amend -C HEAD"

Also, I've been working on --fixup and --squash options for commit, under the same inspiration. See, http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/156883

I'm hoping to submit v5 patch series tomorrow night.
