But let's count keystrokes (after -a):

<BLANK>-<SHIFT>C<BLANK>HEAD<ENTER>
10 keystrokes (more if you release SHIFT before D)

But if vi pops up you have:

<ENTER><SHIFT>ZZ
4 keystrokes

Where is the advantage of the option?

Thanks guys.

@Johannes: You are right but, i will make an alias for the entire command.
So keystrokes are same for me. :)

There is one more benefit, we don't have to wait for git. We can simply switch to
some other window and work. And can write further command on the same window, in
the time git processes commit --amend.
