[issue572] Editing while committing a change forgets new changes

[Timo Sirainen]

New submission from Timo Sirainen <tss at iki.fi>:

1. Edit a file
2. Begin committing the file -> editor starts
3. Edit the file again
4. Save the commit message -> finish commit

Now hg status / commit / diff shows that there are no changes. Touching the
file's timestamp causes them to again notice the changes.

I was expecting that I could still modify the to-be-committed file(s) while the
editor was open (like CVS allowed), but if this isn't possible it shouldn't at
least forget about the new changes.
