| What you need to do is to create a new commit with the same details as the current HEAD commit, but with the parent as the previous version of HEAD. git reset --soft will move the branch pointer so that the next commit happens on top of a different commit from where the current branch head is now. | |
| # Move the current head so that it's pointing at the old commit | |
| # Leave the index intact for redoing the commit | |
| git reset --soft HEAD@{1} | |
| # commit the current tree using the commit details of the previous | |
| # HEAD commit. (Note that HEAD@{1} is pointing somewhere different from the | |
| # previous command. It's now pointing at the erroneously amended commit.) | |
| git commit -C HEAD@{1} | |
