OPTIONS

       there are unstaged changes.

       <flags> -f <flags>

       will  use  the  given regex flags in the sed command (for example "g" replaces multiple times on the same
       line).

       <search>

       <replacement>

       the replacement passed to sed, the second part of the sed expression.

EXAMPLES

       $ git sed ´my_function´ ´do_stuff´
       # ... only does the changes, without committing
       $ git commit -m"use proper function name"
       $ git sed -c ´do_stuff´ ´stuff´
       # .. does the changes and a commit
       $ git sed -f g do_stuff stuff
       # .. g is actually pretty important, otherwise you will miss some
       # stuff!
