How do I reword the first commit message? I was able to reword commit messages after the first commit using 'git rebase -i <first-commit-id>', but I am not sure how to reword the first commit message itself. Any help?

Thanks, Shantanu.

$ git rebase -h

    --root                rebase all reachable commits up to the root(s)
