NAME

       git-revise - Efficiently update, split, and rearrange git commits

SYNOPSIS

       git revise [<options>] [<target>]

DESCRIPTION

       git  revise is a git(1) subcommand to efficiently update, split, and rearrange commits. It
       is heavily inspired by git-rebase(1), however tries to be more efficient and ergonomic for
       patch-stack oriented workflows.

       By  default,  git  revise will apply staged changes to <target>, updating HEAD to point at
       the revised history. It also supports splitting commits, rewording commit messages.

       Unlike git-rebase(1), git revise avoids  modifying  working  directory  and  index  state,
       performing  all  merges in-memory, and only writing them when necessary. This allows it to
       be significantly faster on large codebases, and avoid invalidating builds.

       If --autosquash or --interactive is specified, the <target> argument is optional. If it is
       omitted, git revise will consider a range of unpublished commits on the current branch.

OPTIONS

   General options
       -a, --all
              Stage changes to tracked files before revising.

       -p, --patch
              Interactively stage hunks from the worktree before revising.

       --no-index
              Ignore staged changes in the index.

       --reauthor
              Reset target commit's author to the current user.

       --ref <gitref>
              Working branch to update; defaults to HEAD.

   Main modes of operation
       -i, --interactive
              Rather  than  applying  staged  changes to <target>, edit a todo list of actions to
              perform on commits after <target>. See INTERACTIVE MODE.

       --autosquash, --no-autosquash
              Rather than directly applying staged changes  to  <target>,  automatically  perform
              fixup  or  squash  actions  marked with fixup! or squash!  between <target> and the
              current HEAD. For more information on what these actions do, see INTERACTIVE MODE.

              These commits are usually created with git commit --fixup=<commit>  or  git  commit
              --squash=<commit>,  and  identify  the  target  with  the  first line of its commit
              message.

              This option can be combined with --interactive to modify the generated todos before
              they're executed.

              If  the  --autosquash  option is enabled by default using a configuration variable,
              the option --no-autosquash can be used to override and disable  this  setting.  See
              CONFIGURATION.

       -c, --cut
              Interactively  select hunks from <target>. The chosen hunks are split into a second
              commit immediately after the target.

              After splitting is complete, both commits' messages are edited.

              See the "Interactive Mode" section of git-add(1) to learn how to operate this mode.

       -e, --edit
              After applying staged changes, edit <target>'s commit message.

              This option can be combined with --interactive to allow editing of commit  messages
              within the todo list. For more information on, see INTERACTIVE MODE.

       -m <msg>, --message <msg>
              Use  the given <msg> as the new commit message for <target>. If multiple -m options
              are given, their values are concatenated as separate paragraphs.

       --version
              Print version information and exit.

CONFIGURATION

       Configuration is managed by git-config(1).

       revise.autoSquash
              If set to true, imply --autosquash whenever --interactive is specified.  Overridden
              by  --no-autosquash.  Defaults to false. If not set, the value of rebase.autoSquash
              is used instead.

CONFLICT RESOLUTION

       When a conflict is encountered, git revise will attempt to resolve it automatically  using
       standard  git  mechanisms.  If  automatic  resolution  fails, the user will be prompted to
       resolve them manually.

       There is currently no support for using git-mergetool(1) to resolve conflicts.

       No attempt is made to detect renames of files  or  directories.  git  revise  may  produce
       suboptimal  results  across renames. Use the interactive mode of git-rebase(1) when rename
       tracking is important.

NOTES

       A successful git revise will add a single entry to the reflog, allowing it  to  be  undone
       with  git  reset @{1}. Unsuccessful git revise commands will leave your repository largely
       unmodified.

       No merge commits may occur between the target commit and HEAD, as rewriting  them  is  not
       supported.

       See  git-rebase(1)  for  more  information  on  the implications of modifying history on a
       repository that you share.

INTERACTIVE MODE

       git revise supports an interactive mode inspired by the interactive mode of git-rebase(1).

       This mode is started with the last commit you want to retain "as-is":

          git revise -i <after-this-commit>

       An editor will be fired up with the commits in your current branch after the given commit.
       If  the  index  has  any  staged but uncommitted changes, a <git index> entry will also be
       present.

          pick 8338dfa88912 Oneline summary of first commit
          pick 735609912343 Summary of second commit
          index 672841329981 <git index>

       These commits may be re-ordered to change the order they appear in history.  In  addition,
       the  pick  and index commands may be replaced to modify their behaviour. If present, index
       commands must be at the bottom of the list, i.e. they can not  be  followed  by  non-index
       commands.

       If  -e was specified, the full commit message will be included, and each command line will
       begin with a ++. Any changes made to the commit messages in this file will be  applied  to
       the  commit  in  question, allowing for simultaneous editing of commit messages during the
       todo editing phase.

          ++ pick 8338dfa88912
          Oneline summary of first commit

          Body of first commit

          ++ pick 735609912343
          Summary of second commit

          Body of second commit

          ++ index 672841329981
          <git index>

       The following commands are supported in all interactive modes:

       index  Do not commit these changes, instead leaving them staged in the index.  Index lines
              must come last in the file.

       pick   Use  the  given commit as-is in history. When applied to the generated index entry,
              the commit will have the message <git index>.

       squash Add the commit's changes into the previous commit and open an editor to  merge  the
              commits' messages.

       fixup  Like squash, but discard this commit's message rather than editing.

       reword Open an editor to modify the commit message.

       cut    Interactively  select  hunks  from  the  commit.  The chosen hunks are split into a
              second commit immediately after it.

              After splitting is complete, both commits' messages are edited.

              See the "Interactive Mode" section of git-add(1) to learn how to operate this mode.
