My first language is not english and I’m working in a team whose first language isn’t english either, but the documentation we are producing is in english.
One person of the team made an mistake and has been commiting and pushing everything he does in his own language. So i’d like to know if there’s any way to ammend comments that date to about 3 months ago to this day.
Is it possible?
You cannot do this without requiring everyone who already pulled those commits to fix stuff. Rewriting history is srs bsns. Consider if you really need to fix those commit messages – are people likely to need them in the future and unable to paste them into google translator? If not, it’s not worth the trouble.
Anyway, the way to do it is
git rebase -i HEAD~xwithxbeing the number of commits you want to go back. Then you get an editor window where you replacepickwithreword. After saving+existing you’ll be able to edit each commit message.
