Documentation/SubmittingPatches informs the contributor that gitk's context menu command "Copy commit summary" can be used to obtain the conventional format of referencing existing commits. This command in gitk was renamed to "Copy commit reference" in commit [1], following implementation of Git's "reference" pretty format in [2].

Update mention of this gitk command in Documentation/SubmittingPatches to its new name.
