Git & Android studio : Change the details of submitted change list

Question

I'm using git plugin with android studio. My problem is when I submit a change list(public commit) but my comment in change list was wrong/missing and I want to change it.

QUESTION :

Is there any way to edit information of my public committed change list by git add on in AndroidStudio.

I'm using MacOSX.

Answer 1

For Android Studio 3.1.1

1. Click Version Control tool window (at the bottom of the window).
2. Click Log tab. You will see a list of your commits, with their comments.
3. Right click the commit you want to change its comment, then click Reword.

Answer 2

You can't change the last commit comment from the editor. You can amend the last commit, so add an comment to the last commit, but you will also have to commit a change, to do so :

When committing, you have a checkbox Amend commit, select it. Your commit will be amend to the previous one. See this thread

But if you use the commandline, you might be able to have more options to do what you want, from this thread :

git commit --amend

Will open your editor, allowing you to change the commit message of the most recent commit.
