Why does git call me "clever" when I reword the last commit message?
I think this might be the original commit message:
git-commit --amend: two fixes.When running "git commit --amend" only to fix the commit logmessage without any content change, we mistakenly showed thegit-status output that says "nothing to commit" withoutcommenting it out.If you have already run update-index but you want to amend thetop commit, "git commit --amend --only" without any paths shouldhave worked, because --only means "starting from the basecommit, update-index these paths only to prepare the index tocommit, and perform the commit". However, we refused -o withoutpaths.Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>I'm not very git proficient, but to me it does look like a genuine compliment forgetting around the dirty index by using --only without paths
