Do you mean both "--fixup=:/<text>" and "--fixup=amend::/<text>"
work and do the same thing? If so, that is good.
"--fixup=:/<text>" will work as it does now and "--fixup=amend::/<text>"
will create an amend! commit.
Note that we intend to allow
accept any prefix of "amend" and "reword" so --fixup=a:<commit> would
work.
"a" and "r" may happen to be unique but we would not want to be
limited to these two forever---future developers are allowed to
invent other clever variants. So let's say "accept unique prefix as
abbreviation for these operating mode words like 'amend' and 'reword'"
Sure - that's actually what I meant but I wasn't very clear
Do you think we want to support "--fixup=squash:<commit>" so there is a
uniform way for creating all flavors or is that just going to be
confusing when we have "--squash=<commit>" already?
Best Wishes
