I even commit more often. One annoyance with amend is the commit msg:
git commit --amend will always aks for a commit msg. To avoid that I use 
this config:
git config --global alias.amend 'commit --amend -C HEAD'

This creates the alias 'git amend' which will reuse the commit msg from 
the latest commit.

So the only commit wherte you have to add a comment is the initial 
commit (without amend).
