How to recommit in git

Question

I have commited some change with git. Now I would like to change the commit text. Is there any possibility to do that? I am using eclipse git and gittortoise

Answer 1

you may use git commit --amend -m "message" or may do this which is fairly equivalent :

$ git reset --soft HEAD
$ ... do something else to come up with the right tree ...
$ git commit -c ORIG_HEAD
