Amending causes buffer over-read

Steps to reproduce:

• create a commit with a message of length = 4758 ASCII characters (WebStorm generated such a message due to conflicts)
• press "Amend HEAD"

Hmm, I'm unable to reproduce the issue as stated. My steps:

1. Create a commit called "Test"
2. Stage 1 file and paste in the "ssss..." text from your attached document
3. Click Amend Head

@lucasderraugh nonono, you should've committed the "ssss.." and then clicked "Amend HEAD". Comitting "Test" was not necessary actually

Hmm, even if I do that I don't seem to have this issue. I made a commit with "sss..." (text from text file) then opened the commit view and hit "Amend HEAD" but it just filled in all the sss... like I would expect.

I'll try to look into it a bit more though to see how the Amend HEAD functionality works.

Ah, I was actually able to reproduce it. Still not sure where things are going awry, but I should be able to dig in now. Thanks!
