How to change your commit messages in Git?

At some point you’ll find yourself in a situation where you need edit a commit message. That commit might already be pushed or not, be the most recent or burried below 10 other commits, but fear not, git has your back 🙂.

Not pushed + most recent commit:

git commit --amend

This will open your $EDITOR and let you change the message. Continue with your usual git push origin master.

GitHub Compare view

GitHub's compare view is available at:

https://github.com/$USER/$REPO/compare/$REV_A...$REV_B

Naturally, $USER and $REPO are the owner (user/organization) and repository names, respectively.

$REV{A,B} are the two sides of the compare view; they can either be a ref in $USER's repository, i.e. the name of a branch, tag or a commit SHA, or it can be a ref in $OWNER's fork of the repository by using the format $OWNER:$REF.

You can get a diff or patch for the result of the compare view by appending .diff or .patch to the URL, respectively.
