(Note: starting Oct. 2020, any new repository is created with the default branch main, not master. And you can rename existing repository default branch from master to main. The rest of this 2014 answer has been updated to use “main“) (The following assumes github.com itself is not down, as eri0o points out in the comments: … Read more
Since Git 1.7.9 you can also use git commit –amend –no-edit to get your result. Note that this will not include metadata from the other commit such as the timestamp or tag, which may or may not be important to you.
Heroku links your projects based on the heroku git remote (and a few other options, see the update below). To add your Heroku remote as a remote in your current repository, use the following command: git remote add heroku git@heroku.com:project.git where project is the name of your Heroku project (the same as the project.heroku.com subdomain). … Read more
