I need to change the commit message on one of my commits? This happen to be a really old commit and doing a git rebase is not helping me. Is there a way to make changes to my commit message given that I know the commit Id.

I have checked the following link

Why is rebase not helping you? You can't change the history without a rebase. – choroba Feb 13 '18 at 08:47
It's not possible if you don't want to rewrite the history. – ElpieKay Feb 13 '18 at 08:48
Wrt to the link i shared rebase will ask me to check each and every commit. This commit is way down and I tried searching for it but could not get it in the list. If there is no other way out of this I will perhaps relook at the editor more closely for my changes. – Anunay Feb 13 '18 at 08:58
You know the commit id? So you should be able to rebase without searching for anything. – evolutionxbox Feb 13 '18 at 09:01
Can you tell me how? – Anunay Feb 13 '18 at 09:03
**I am trying the git rebase -i ** , I could not get my comment – Anunay Feb 13 '18 at 09:08

`git rebase -i ~1` where `` is the ID of the commit you want to change. – evolutionxbox Feb 13 '18 at 09:08
