I usually do "format-patch -$n; reset --hard HEAD~$n; edit 00??-*.patch; am 00??-*.patch" myself when I got into that situation to rebuild the branch, and haven't personally felt need for an option to --amend, but it might make sense to teach git-commit --amend to allow --author option to override it; I think it currently ignores --author when given without erroring out. It may become a question if we would want to allow updating the timestamp as well, but when people asked for --author I did not hear from anybody who wanted to have --authortime, so not being able to do so probably is Ok. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
