I am attempting to remove a commit from my repository history based on its message or filename by using commit.skip() . However, it seems that once the conditional statement evaluates to true, all subsequent commits in the history are skipped, irrespective of the condition.
The code I have been using to skip a commit based on its filename is the following:
git filter-repo --commit-callback
for change in commit.file_changes:
if b"index" in change.filename:
commit.skip()
whereas for skip a commit based on its message content is the following:
git filter-repo --commit-callback
if b"index" in commit.message:
commit.skip()
The logic of the conditionals is correct, as when I use
git filter-repo --commit-callback
if b"index" in commit.message:
commit.message = b"new commit message"
it works perfectly fine, affecting only the commits which respect the conditional statement.
Any idea on how I can achieve this?
