I'd suggest maybe waiting until someone more experienced verifies what I say here before trying it! I think if you do what Deon has suggested, then do the following to go back to before you made the commit: $ git reset --soft HEAD~1 Then it should be in the state you left it right before you made the commit (i.e. with all your changes staged, just not committed). Doing the same git commit command again now (with your config updated), should do what you want. -- Gerard Ryan :: galileo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx :: http://gerard.ryan.lt/blog PGP Fingerprint: AA11 A666 C98E B6D8 231C 11ED 6EDC 7E4A 62BC 4A15
