Thanks, and thanks to brian and erik for describing the use case better than I did in the original message. Mine is the same: entries pile up with the default "WIP on <branch>" message, and the ones worth keeping are the hardest to find again later.

I will send a v2 shortly that addresses Patrick's review. It renames the subcommand to 'reword' and rewrites the reflog in a single transaction.

Thanks.
