Hi, Just to add another way of doing it without installing a new tool: I use `git rebase -x "git signoff" HEAD~<N>` signoff is an alias to 'commit --amend -s --no-edit' I didn't time it, but it always takes less than a second So, to have the same 'so' alias: so = "!f() { git rebase -x 'git commit --amend -s --no-edit' HEAD~$1; };f" One of the benefit of this method is that you can re-run the same command twice, it will add the signoff line only once.

Hi devs,

[I sent this on Aug 26th 2021 but it never reached the list!]

You may have seen the following warning when signing off on patches using the git alias

""" WARNING: git-filter-branch has a glut of gotchas generating mangled history rewrites. Hit Ctrl-C before proceeding to abort, then use an alternative filtering tool such as 'git filter-repo' (https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo/) instead. See the filter-branch manual page for more details; to squelch this warning, set FILTER_BRANCH_SQUELCH_WARNING=1. Proceeding with filter-branch... """

And yes, it's very slow, `time git so 1` takes around 10 sec for me.

You can switch to git-filter-repo (https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo).

First, install it (`pip3 install git-filter-repo` should do it, otherwise read their install doc https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo/blob/main/INSTALL.md).

Then adjust the git alias (~/.gitconfig):

so = "!f() { c=`expr $1 - 1`; git filter-repo --message-callback 'return message + b\"\\nSigned-off-by: Full Name <email>\"' --refs HEAD~$c^..; }; f"

I am using 'so' but you may use something else as it's not what is on the wiki. "Completely finished after 0.20 seconds."
