Daily Software Tips & Tricks

We’ve all done it: you hit commit, then immediately realize you made a typo in the message or forgot to stage one small, crucial file. Before you start panicking about rebasing, remember `git commit --amend`.

It cleans up your history beautifully, but be careful: only use this if the commit hasn't been pushed to a shared remote branch yet!
