git-stamp
Append an identifier stamp to the last commit message
TLDR
Stamp the last commit with an id and message
$ git stamp [Reviewed-by] "[Jane Doe]"
Stamp with just an id$ git stamp [Fixes-123]
Replace any previous stamp with the same id$ git stamp --replace [Reviewed-by] "[Jane Doe]"
SYNOPSIS
git stamp [-r | --replace] id [message...]
DESCRIPTION
git stamp amends the most recent commit, appending a new paragraph of the form `<id> <message>` to its message. Part of git-extras, it is a quick way to tag a commit with metadata like `Reviewed-by`, `Tested-by`, or an issue reference without hand-editing the commit message.With `--replace`, any prior paragraph in the message starting with the same id is stripped before the new stamp is added, so re-running the command updates rather than duplicates the stamp.
PARAMETERS
ID
Stamp identifier (e.g. `Reviewed-by`, `Fixes`).MESSAGE
Optional text appended after the id.-r, --replace
Remove any existing stamp lines with the same id (case-insensitive) before appending the new one.
INSTALL
sudo apt install git
sudo dnf install git
sudo pacman -S git
sudo apk add git
sudo zypper install git
brew install git
nix profile install nixpkgs#git
CAVEATS
Amends HEAD, so it rewrites the commit hash; don't use it on a commit that has already been pushed and shared.
