[PATCH 3/7] rebase -i: clarify and fix 'fixup -c' rebase-todo help

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When `-c` says "edit the commit message" it's not clear what will be
edited. The original's commit message or the replacement's message or a
combination of the two. Word it such that it states more precisely what
exactly will be edited and also remove the use of a period and
capitalized word in the to-do help text.
