My new Git utility `what-changed-twice` needs a new name


From the highly eclectic blog of Mark Dominus

The sp commits are spelling corrections; if the error was made in the same unmerged topic branch I will want to squash the correction into the original commit so that the error never appears at all. Later I can go back and split up those commits if it seems to make the history clearer. That means that in a rebase, I can move that commit literally anywhere else in the sequence without creating a conflict.
