Re: [Savannah-hackers-public] Non-fast-forward pushes on git

[Alfred M. Szmidt]

   My new project has been recently approved (gnu-social-mode), but due to
   a new member's mistake there is a commit on the repository which is
   malformed.  

The proper way is to use `git commit -amend'; not rewrite history.

But what do you mean malformed? These are the few last commits to
gnu-social-mode, none of them seem "malformed":

      Rename files, comments, functions, etc.
      
      This commit is a major renaming for the project.  It basically does
      s/identica/gnu-social/ in every file.  It also renames the files
      themselves, and makes a few adjustments needed for the OAuth support on
      gnu-social-mode.el.

      Relicense code to GPLv3+ for gnu-social-mode
      
      This is the first commit of the new gnu-social-mode project.  It simply
      relicenses all the code to GPLv3+ on all files.  Very tiny cleanups were
      also made on the top comments of those files as well.
      
      Welcome, gnu-social-mode!
