Oh, indeed, this is a boring copy-paste error:
diff --git a/builtin/history.c b/builtin/history.c
index cdc93a1cbd..f03272bddd 100644
--- a/builtin/history.c
+++ b/builtin/history.c
@@ -749,7 +749,7 @@ static int cmd_history_reword(int argc,
original_commit = lookup_commit_reference_by_name(argv[0]);
if (!original_commit) {
- ret = error(_("commit to be split cannot be found: %s"), argv[0]);
+ ret = error(_("commit to be reworded cannot be found: %s"), argv[0]);
goto out;
}
