Subject: how to add an empty initial commit
Date: Sun, 30 Aug 2009 08:52:24 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090830005224.GC10952@debian.b2j> (raw)
I want to insert an empty initial commit so that I can rebase and edit
files in the real initial commit. There is a --root option in
git-rebase but I can not find example of how to use it.
I googled some said it needs to create a new branch, I tried but it
failed to merge.

regards,
