Add script to get modified pages for commit messages
...
The script can be used this way:
git commit -sm "$(./scripts/modified_pages.sh): Short commit msg"
And then maybe --amend and add a longer message.
This is especially useful for changes to many pages at once,
usually when running a script to apply some global changes.
