Sometimes intentionally or unintentionally you may have given a wrong commit message due to various reasons.
But don't worry...
You can change your commit messages with GIT rebase
command.
Step 1: Checkout Branch
checkout your branch where you want to change your commit messages
git checkout <branch>
Step2: Pull last N commits
Rebase will help you modify your commit messages, squash and merge all your commits into one, but this tutorial is mainly to edit your messages. I will talk more about rebase
in another tutorial.
git rebase -i HEAD~N
display a list of the last
Ncommits in your default text editor.
Step3: Long live Reword
Replace pick with reword before each commit message you want to change.
Step 4: Use force sometimes
git push -f origin <branch>
