Hello,

the man page of git commit-tree SYNOPSIS is:

    git commit-tree <tree> [(-p <parent>)...] < changelog
    git commit-tree [(-p <parent>)...] [(-m <message>)...] [(-F
<file>)...] <tree>

The second form is incorrect: the <tree> must be specified before the options.
E.g.

$ git commit-tree -m B 88f7dbd47
fatal: Not a valid object name -m

$ git commit-tree 88f7dbd47 -m B
