Another way to handle this if you haven't made the change yet is to do a `git rebase -i head~4` (or however far back) and mark the place where the change needs to happen as "edit". Make your change, add the file, then `git rebase --continue`.
If you've already made the change but haven't committed it, you can stash it before doing the rebase, then pop the stash while editing that commit.
Thanks for the tip!
