-    <h1>7.13 Git Tools - Replace</h1>
-  <div>
-<h2 id="_replace">Replace</h2>
-<div class="paragraph">
-<p>As we’ve emphasized before, the objects in Git’s object database are unchangeable, but Git does provide an interesting way to <em>pretend</em> to replace objects in its database with other objects.</p>
-</div>
-<div class="paragraph">
-<p>The <code>replace</code> command lets you specify an object in Git and say "every time you refer to <em>this</em> object, pretend it’s a <em>different</em> object".
-This is most commonly useful for replacing one commit in your history with another one without having to rebuild the entire history with, say, <code>git filter-branch</code>.</p>
-</div>
-<div class="paragraph">
-<p>For example, let’s say you have a huge code history and want to split your repository into one short history for new developers and one much longer and larger history for people interested in data mining.
-You can graft one history onto the other by "replacing" the earliest commit in the new line with the latest commit on the older one.
-This is nice because it means that you don’t actually have to rewrite every commit in the new history, as you would normally have to do to join them together (because the parentage affects the SHA-1s).</p>
-</div>
-<div class="paragraph">
-<p>Let’s try this out.
-Let’s take an existing repository, split it into two repositories, one recent and one historical, and then we’ll see how we can recombine them without modifying the recent repositories SHA-1 values via <code>replace</code>.</p>
-</div>
-<div class="paragraph">
-<p>We’ll use a simple repository with five simple commits:</p>
-</div>
-<div class="listingblock">
-<div class="content">

-9c68fdc Third commit
-945704c Second commit
-c1822cf First commit</code></pre>
-</div>
-</div>
-<div class="paragraph">
-<p>We want to break this up into two lines of history.
-One line goes from commit one to commit four - that will be the historical one.
-The second line will just be commits four and five - that will be the recent history.</p>
-</div>
-<div class="imageblock">
-<div class="content">
-<img src="images/replace1.png" alt="replace1">

-</div>
-<div class="paragraph">
-<p>Well, creating the historical history is easy, we can just put a branch in the history and then push that branch to the <code>master</code> branch of a new remote repository.</p>

-</div>
-<div class="paragraph">
-<p>OK, so our history is published.
-Now the harder part is truncating our recent history down so it’s smaller.
-We need an overlap so we can replace a commit in one with an equivalent commit in the other, so we’re going to truncate this to just commits four and five (so commit four overlaps).</p>

-</div>
-</div>
-<div class="paragraph">
-<p>It’s useful in this case to create a base commit that has instructions on how to expand the history, so other developers know what to do if they hit the first commit in the truncated history and need more.
-So, what we’re going to do is create an initial commit object as our base point with instructions, then rebase the remaining commits (four and five) on top of it.</p>
-</div>
-<div class="paragraph">
-<p>To do that, we need to choose a point to split at, which for us is the third commit, which is <code>9c68fdc</code> in SHA-speak.
-So, our base commit will be based off of that tree.
-We can create our base commit using the <code>commit-tree</code> command, which just takes a tree and will give us a brand new, parentless commit object SHA-1 back.</p>

-These are commands that are not generally meant to be used directly, but instead are used by <strong>other</strong> Git commands to do smaller jobs.
-On occasions when we’re doing weirder things like this, they allow us to do really low-level things but are not meant for daily use.

-<p>To combine them, you can simply call <code>git replace</code> with the commit you want to replace and then the commit you want to replace it with.

-<p>Cool, right?  Without having to change all the SHA-1s upstream, we were able to replace one commit in our history with an entirely different commit and all the normal tools (<code>bisect</code>, <code>blame</code>, etc) will work how we would expect them to.</p>
