I didn't say anything about git. I said the commit messages are eternal, and none of those changes will change the commit messages (except, perhaps, changing the VCS, but usually that will preserve commit messages too).
- CydeWeys 7y agoYou'd be foolish to do a VCS migration that discards the commit messages. I've never seen it happen personally, as people tend not to be that foolish. I've worked with legacy codebases that went from CVS -> SVN -> git and all of the commit messages going back to the very beginning are intact, because why would you ever do a migration that doesn't maintain them?
