In this video I'll dive into some of the ways Git allows us to rewrite commit history. Specifically I cover: amending commits, rewording commit messages, deleting commits, reordering commits, squashing commits and splitting commits.

Thanks for this! If you stick to Vim as the default Git text editor, you may want to know about the following commands as a starting point: gg → Go to top of buffer/file. ddp → Delete a line and put it below the current one (to re-order commit). `dd` deletes a line while `p` put it below the current line. ddkP → Delete a line and put it above the current one. `dd` deletes a line, `k` moves up one line and `P` (uppercase) pastes above the current line. h / j / k / l → Move around à la Vim. x → Delete a character xp → Switch the order of two characters. G → Go to the end of the buffer/file. ZZ → Save and quit buffer. For this purpose, same as `:wq` but less keystrokes ;). There's obviously much more to learn, but that should be useful to at least do some basic operations. Also, when splitting a commit, a single file might be part of two commits. So to commit only part of a file, there's also an interactive staging mode: git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Tools-Interactive-Staging

Great comment but I'm surprised you didn't include 'dw'. No one should be backspacing a word in Vim

@joshuakoehler6457 4 жыл бұрын

@@SomeKZfaqGuy I thought a similar thing, but would recommend 'cw' (change word) instead, which enters you into insert mode after deleting the word. So it is equivalent to 'dw' + 'i'
