Bad commit messages

[hdockter]

Due to a wrong usage on my side of Git there are two commit messages  
in trunk with a text like: Merge branch 'XXX'

This is obviously is not very expressive.

The right commit message is only in my Git branch but was not  
committed properly. This is because I have chosen the wrong order for  
merging and rebasing.

I'm pretty far from considering myself an expert on git, but one of the better resources I have found to learn git from is GitReady[1], it has reasonably concise posts on a single topic, and a good categorization into beginner/intermediate/advanced.

It also has an aggregation of the best links on the web for further information.

Thanks for this hint. One e-book I found very good for learning Git is http://peepcode.com/products/git-internals-pdf 
. It is concise and uses a lot of graphs to visualize Git concepts.
