Git

Rewriting History

• This includes
  • changing commit messages
  • making changes in older commits
  • deleting commits
  • combining commits
• Rewriting the commit messsage of latest commit (git commit –amend)
  
• Git has interactive rebase where you can rewrite history
• View classroom recording for examples

detached head

• HEAD should look at branch not at commit
• When HEAD looks at commit this state is called as DETACHED HEAD and this is a faulty state

Recover a deleted commit

• on any of your organizational servers (self hosted git)
