Subject: [PATCH] commit: Add -f, --fixes <commit> option to add Fixes: line

Linux Kernel Summit 2013 decided on a commit message convention to
identify commits containing bugs fixed by a commit: a "Fixes:" line,
included in the standard commit footer (along with "Signed-off-by:" if
present), containing an abbreviated commit hash (at least 12 characters
to keep it valid for a long time) and the subject of the commit (for
human readers).  This helps people (or automated tools) determine how
far to backport a commit.

Add a command line option for git commit to automatically construct the
"Fixes:" line for a commit.  This avoids the need to manually construct
that line by copy-pasting the commit hash and subject.

Also works with --amend to modify an existing commit's message.  To add
a Fixes line to an earlier commit in a series, use rebase -i and add the
following line after the existing commit:
x git commit --amend --no-edit -f $commit_containing_bug

Generalize append_signoff to support appending arbitrary extra lines to
a commit in the signoff block; this avoids duplicating the logic to find
or construct that block.
