Not exactly an alias but a short script. First, get git-revise which is a replacement for git rebase, and fzf if for some reason you don’t have it yet. Then make a script in your ~/.local/bin called git-f or whatever you’d like:

<pre style="background-color:#ffffff;">

</span><span style="color:#323232;">    </span><span style="color:#62a35c;">exec</span><span style="color:#323232;"> git revise </span><span style="color:#183691;">"$</span><span style="color:#323232;">COMMIT</span><span style="color:#183691;">"
</span><span style="font-weight:bold;color:#a71d5d;">else
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    </span><span style="color:#62a35c;">exit</span><span style="color:#323232;"> 1
</span><span style="font-weight:bold;color:#a71d5d;">fi
</span>

Now hack away in a branch, make some commits, and at some point you will realize you want to modify an earlier commit. Use git add -p to add the relevant lines, but then instead of making a fixup commit just type git f and pick the target commit from the list.

Another vote for Miniflux. If you like a Reader-type interface, check out reminiflux (it’s just an alternative frontend).
