Like Thomas said earlier, you can change you commit message with git rebase --interactive:
git rebase --interactive ad9d46d348542bb4b7d8d09fbe6b4a6548cb68ff It you open a editor with all commit after the one you passed to git rebase. You only need to change the word "pick" for "reword" in the line that represets you commit. Remember that if you already pushed this commits to a remote repository, you need a push --force and other people that will pull this repository might have a problem.
