git remove a commit from pull request

Question

I'm newbie to open source contribution, so it one of my first tries.

I developed a library (gem) called validates: https://github.com/kaize/validates/

I made 2 branches through git checkout -b branch_name:

https://github.com/kaize/validates/pull/20 & https://github.com/kaize/validates/pull/19, and make commits for them, but, you can see that ip-validator pull request have a commit Blank validator 399cdd7.

What I need to do to remove it from this pull request (and still place in blank validator branch)?

Please help me with make world better, guys!

Answer 1

On the ip-validator branch, you'd do git rebase -i HEAD~2 - this will start an interactive rebase back two commits on that branch.

At this point, you'll get an editor open with options seen here: https://help.github.com/articles/interactive-rebase

Simply put, to remove that commit, just delete the commit line in the editor, save that editor file, and git will create a new commit without the commit you removed.
