How to remove your commits from submitted PR

When you submit a PR, it includes a wrong previous commit. How to remove these commits?

If you are developing on another branch, switch to that branch. If you are developing on main, you can skip this step.

git checkout your-branch

In Github, view the current PR and check how many commits it includes. Replace n in the following command with the number of commits and execute it (if you have synchronized the fork, there will be new commits in Github, but they will not be shown in VS Code, so the rebase result may be earlier than the first commit of the PR):

git rebase -i HEAD~n

In the command line, you will see something like the following text:

pick 888a17a add pnpm setting in windows (#15)
pick 472jkda add pnpm setting in windows
pick 472bd9c add switch butoon
pick 0369726 add dark theme change
……

The commit with the Github PR number will be shown with a hash symbol and the PR number. For example, if I want to remove the second commit, I will change pick to drop.

To force push the changes, use the following command:

git push origin HEAD:your-branch --force

This will force push the changes to Github, and the PR commits will be updated.

Tomcat set Windows cmd title

When you open multiple tomcat windows, it is difficult to distinguish which window is which project. Setting the window name can help distinguish.

Enter the bin directory of tomcat, such as T:\apache-tomcat-9.0.60-windows-x64\apache-tomcat-9.0.60\bin, find the catalina.bat file, and open it with a text editor.

You can see in the bottom of the description, there is a parameter called TITLE, and the default is Tomcat. You can modify it according to your needs. It can have spaces.

rem   TITLE           (Optional) Specify the title of Tomcat window. The default
rem                   TITLE is Tomcat if it's not specified.
rem                   Example (all one line)
rem                   set TITLE=Tomcat.Cluster#1.Server#1 [%DATE% %TIME%]

Search for TITLE in the file, and find the following section. Fill in your name after set TITLE.

:doStart
shift
rem Set the title of the window
rem if "%TITLE%" == "" set TITLE=Tomcat
if "%TITLE%" == "" set TITLE=YOURNAME YOURSUBNAME
set _EXECJAVA=start "%TITLE%" %_RUNJAVA%
if not ""%1"" == ""-security"" goto execCmd
shift
echo Using Security Manager
set "SECURITY_POLICY_FILE=%CATALINA_BASE%\conf\catalina.policy"
goto execCmd
