A quick check of the handy /test-all-help page for references to -e
shows that no command uses it now, so it doesn't have any overloaded
meanings to confuse things. The checkin command has no option at all to
cause the comment to be edited (that is what happens if -m or -M are not
used). If it did, I suppose that --edit-comment would be its likely
name, and -e its likely short name.

So it looks like that was a six character edit to the amend command. Try
checkin [769bc7b4] as see if it does what you expected.

Here I go again reminding people that if you just want short versions of
commands, aliases for common command operations with specific switches,
etc. that http://fossil.0branch.com/fsl/home has a solution for this
already that's been available for years now.

[fossil-users] Shorter alias for FOSSIL AMEND --EDIT-COMMENT request

[tonyp]

Would it be possible to add a short version for the –-EDIT-COMMENT option of 
the AMEND command (just like there is for –-comment)?

Something like –e perhaps?

--EDIT-COMMENT is the one option I use most often when using the AMEND command 
to fix check-in comment typos, and this option is a bit too long to type all 
the time.
