felixschl / git-fiddle Goto Github PK

In general the one thing I need to edit when rebasing is commit messages. It'd be nice to have a command line argument for git-fiddle that only allows editing commit messages. Even better if the first line of the commit message was on the same line as the 'pick' command, since for the common case of single-line commit messages this would both maximize use of vertical space and would allow more convenient use of editor features like vim's vertical block editing mode and sublime text's multiple cursors.

Thanks a lot for this plugin.
I wasn't able to use it on Windows due to this error (Git for Windows v2.7.0, windows7, docker shell):

/mingw64/libexec/git-core/git-rebase--interactive: line 255: C:/Program: No such
 file or directory
Could not execute editor

I fixed it by adding a '' on GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR line 112:

GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR="'${SCRIPT_DIR}/_fiddle_seq_editor'" \

Not sure if it is cross compatible, so I'm just leaving this here hoping it will be useful.

Hi,

It looks interesting but I'm still struggling to fathom exactly what your command does. It might be useful to have a small screencast to show what it does and what problem it solves !

Thanks to your work !

The git rebase exec command runs with the user's default shell. git-fiddle uses bash syntax, so it'd probably be wise to explicitly invoke bash. Otherwise, git-fiddle won't work for people who use, for example, the fish shell.

We should avoid amending commits that have not been touched by the user.
