Commit Amend destroys Signed-off-by (and potentially other fields) in commit message

[guw]

• VSCode Version: 1.21.1
• OS Version: macOS 10.13.4

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Do a Commit All (Signed Off)
2. Do a Commit All (Amend)

On step 2 the commit message is collapsed into a single line. This is wrong. Any line breaks must be preserved because the the Signed-of-by field (as well as any other) needs to be separated from the commit message text by an empty line.

Might be the same issue as #40295 (depending on the fix there)

Definitely!
