git rebase interactive command

When rebasing commit history via git rebase -i we can use the following command. Example use-case

# In the todo list:

edit abc1234 Fix typo

Here are the most useful commands for removing or modifying commits:

When you run git rebase -i, Git opens a todo list where each commit is prefixed with a command. These are the commands you can use (aliases in parentheses):

Command	Alias	What it does
pick	p	Apply the commit as-is (default)
reword	r	Apply commit, but pause to edit only the commit message
edit	e	Apply commit, then pause so you can change files and run git commit --amend
squash	s	Combine this commit into the one above it & merge both commit messages
fixup	f	Combine this commit into the one above it & discard this commit's message
drop	d	Delete the commit entirely
break	b	Pause the rebase here (useful for manual testing before continuing)
exec	x	Run a shell command at this point in the history
label / reset / merge	l / t / m	Advanced commands for complex rebases (usually auto-generated by Git)

# After saving & exiting the editor, Git pauses here. You then:

git add <files>

git commit --amend

git rebase --continue

Then let's say we would like to make further modification

To move on the the next stage: Use git rebase --continue, --skip, or --abort as needed.
