Our GitLab instance started logging commit messages that all read "end", and I thought about it awhile.

It turns out that a coworker had discovered the --amend flag, but spelled it as -amend, and so it was interpreted as -a -m "end"

That's a good example why simple is good. Less surface for mistakes to happen.
