When a commit is amended a pre-commit hook that verifies the commit's
contents might not find what it's looking for if it looks at the
differences against HEAD when HEAD~1 might be more appropriate. Inform
the commit hook that --amend is being used so that hook authors can do
e.g.

    if test "$1" = amend; then
        ...
    else
        ...
    fi

to handle these situations.

 This hook is invoked by 'git commit', and can be bypassed
-with `--no-verify` option.  It takes no parameter, and is
+with `--no-verify` option.  It takes one parameter which is "amend" if
+`--amend` was used when committing and "noamend" if not. It is
 invoked before obtaining the proposed commit log message and
 making a commit.  Exiting with non-zero status from this script
 causes the 'git commit' to abort.
