> Thank you for your reply, Han. The problem that I have with ‘—allow-empty’ is that the resulting commit is not associated with any particular file. I tried ‘git commit —allow-empty myfile.txt’ but the file argument is effectively ignored. ‘git log myfile.txt’ does not show the empty commit.

Since the git model is snapshot based, there is no way around that,
apart from putting the reference in the commit message which you can
search with git log --grep=myfile.txt.
