Description of problem: Sometime back editing a git commit message in gerrit was possible. Recently it cannot be done. Would it be possible to fix this? Thanks!
You still can. Gerrit removed the "Edit Commit Message" button a long time ago. To edit the commit message you need to select the checkbox next to "Commit Messsage" and press "Edit". This will cause flags to be cleared though. I can look at ensuring the flags don't get cleared when you do this.

The flags already don't get cleared. We used to clear the Verified flag. I've changed it so that you retain them for commit changes and no-change rebases.
