Re: [hibernate-dev] Change commit messages?

Hi Steve, assuming you are in the repository and have checked out the branch you want to edit, type: git rebase -i HEAD~2 This will open up an editor, showing two lines: the last commit on the bottom and the previous one above it. change the "pick" keyword to "r" as the reminder suggests in the commented area of the file itself. Save the file and exit the editor; another editor will be opened to allow you to edit the commit message. The "2" in the command above can be replaced with an higher number to allow you to edit the sequence and commit details of a longer history. For example to change the sequence of commits, just move the order of the lines in the file. To remove a commit from the history, delete a line. There very likely is some clever shortcut to edit just the last commit but don't remember it now :) Cheers, Sanne On 12 January 2012 21:58, Steve Ebersole <steve(a)hibernate.org&gt; wrote: > Anyone know how to change commit messages?  Trying to merge in a pull > request where they did not reference the jira key in their commit messages > > -- > steve(a)hibernate.org > http://hibernate.org > _______________________________________________ > hibernate-dev mailing list > hibernate-dev(a)lists.jboss.org > https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hibernate-dev
