Hi list,
The other day I did the classic:
1) Right, changes all done and committed. Push to public repo.
2) Bugger, missed out an obvious one-liner in a Makefile. Make change
and --amend that last commit.
3) Push to public repo again... Ah, "Not a strict subset" error, can't
push...
It's obvious (I think) to me why I get this error - the commit now has
a different hash so it looks like it would be the wrong thing to do to
allow the push as far as git is concerned. Right?
So, is it safe to "use the --force" in this instance when pushing?
This should just replace the old commit with the --amended commit with
no side-effects, shouldn't it?
Thanks,
Rob
