(Or a rebase --interactive) Actually, rebase --interactive cannot be used to amend the first commit. This is something that has hit me a couple of times when I realised, after the second or third commit, that I needed to fix the first one. I found the fastest way in this case to be to just format-patch all but the first commit, reset --hard to the first commit, amend, and git am what I format- patched. I wish there was a way to tell rebase -i to go back to the first commit, inclusive, but the two or three times I've tried hacking at it I never managed to come to anything useful 8-/ -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta -- 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
