Edit the commit message of the specified commit.

Edit the commit message of the specified commit.

You can easily change the commit message of any of your commits by running but reword <commit-id> and providing a new message in the editor.

This will rewrite the commit with the new message and then rebase any dependent commits on top of it.

You can also use but reword <branch-id> to rename the branch.

Usage: but reword <TARGET> [OPTIONS]

Arguments

• <TARGET> — Commit ID to edit the message for, or branch ID to rename (required)

Options

• -m, --message <MESSAGE> — The new commit message or branch name. If not provided, opens an editor
• -f, --format — Format the existing commit message to 72-char line wrapping without opening an editor
