When you amend the second commit replaces the results of the first. It's for the occasion when you commit too early and possibly forget to add some files, or you mess up your commit message. On Thu, Sep 27, 2012 at 8:36 PM, Thiago Rossi thiagorossi...@gmail.comwrote: Hello everybody! I am new

the log might have a record of the amend, but the first commit has actually been replaced. If this is undesirable, then perhaps you should create a new commit rather than an amend. On Thu, Sep 27, 2012 at 8:59 PM, Max Hodges m...@whiterabbitpress.comwrote: When you amend the second commit

Hum, well it might be currently implemented in a way that leaves traces, but it seems amend is documented to replace the previous commit with the new one. Future implementations and garbage collection may vary. What's the purpose of trying to see if traces of this previous commit exist anyway?

other (none distributed) systems are certainly easier to learn. We were fine with GIT for a few weeks, then suddenly our project is no longer working as expected. Hope we can sort it out with a bit of professional help. On Fri, Oct 5, 2012 at 2:45 AM, Konstantin Khomoutov

repopulate it from a client and you have everything restored. I use git all the time even if the code does not leave one machine. It allows me to track changes and experiment and easily give my clients patches. On Sun, Oct 7, 2012 at 5:38 PM, Max Hodges m...@whiterabbitpress.com wrote: Git
