Automatically reword all rebased commits

Following will automatically execute default editor for every commit:

git rebase origin/master -x 'git commit --amend'

Iterate through history and remove all files mathcing pattern:

git filter-branch --tree-filter 'rm -f m* z* x* w* s* r*' --prune-empty  HEAD

sudo apt install git-filter-repo

Remove workspace dir:

git filter-repo --path workspace --invert-paths --force

git filter-repo --path-rename 'MYDIR/:'

git filter-repo --path-rename ':app/'

git filter-branch --tree-filter 'git ls-files -z | xargs -0 dos2unix' -- --all

filter-branch makes backup by creating refs/oribinal/*. To clean all backups refs from rewriting history tools:

git for-each-ref --format="%(refname)" refs/original/ | xargs -n 1 git update-ref -d
git for-each-ref --format="%(refname)" refs/replace/ | xargs -n 1 git update-ref -d
