How can I easily fixup a past commit?

Question

I just read amending a single file in a past commit in git but unfortunately the accepted solution \'reorders\' the commits, which is not what I want. So here\'s my question

Answer 1

You can avoid the interactive stage by using a "null" editor:

$ EDITOR=true git rebase --autosquash -i ...

This will use /bin/true as the editor, instead of /usr/bin/vim. It always accepts whatever git suggests, without prompting.
