Trouble with COMMIT_EDITMSG

Hey there,

I wanted to upload again a new patch version for my changes. Therefore I pulled like the first time the last patch 
version via "git pull ...", which I copied from the Gerrit Server. Everything works fine, except the problem, that my 
COMMIT_EDITMSG changes completely in comparison to the message file of the upload.


The content now looks like that:

Merge commit 'refs/changes/19/14119/3' of https://code.wireshark.org/review/wireshark

Change-Id: I82322f200e0c247bd8e2b36a2f15344055d0acc8

# Please enter the commit message for your changes. Lines starting
# with '#' will be ignored, and an empty message aborts the commit.
# On branch master
# Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 2 commits.
#   (use "git push" to publish your local commits)


I did exactly the same, like my first new patch upload. (git pull -> making my changes -> git commit --amend -> git 
review -f)
Back then my COMMIT_EDITMSG didn't change and the upload worked, so I am right now confused, why the entire content of 
the file has changed? If I would upload my changes with that file, a completely new change will be created due to the 
new ChangeID, won't it?

Regards

T. Scholz
