Until a minute ago, I had a Git repository in which the last commit had an empty commit message. I filled it out by crushing the new commit on it with git rebase -i
(I was planning to change the contents anyway), but I still would like to know if there is a way to fill in the empty commit messages.
I tried
git commit
but it didnβt work, I tried
git rebase -i HEAD^
and a reword
. Both attempts led to what Git said
fatal: commit has empty message
and go out.
EDIT : to clarify what ended up
# change some stuff git commit git rebase -i HEAD~2
but it seems to be a hack.
