[Sugar-devel] Git commit comment mistake

That's only going to work for commits that haven't been pushed yet;
once you've pushed something, GIT won't let you transparently rewrite
it later without --force, and that's bad form on a shared repository.
(Because it can break subsequent pulls for clients that already have
a checkout.)

I'd just make a new commit that corrects the comment, if you think
that's justified.

- Chris.
