My git branch presently shows :-

# Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 3 commits.

These are :-

a) The first commit of the csv plugin profiles mod.
b) The latest commit of the csv plugin profiles mod.
c) A single line removal.

Commit b) supersedes commit a). How do I safely remove it without
touching
the others? I'm assuming it's 'git revert<name>', but will that
leave the
later ones intact for subsequent pushing? Don't want to foul up.

Since commit b is after a it means that a is not obsolete since b is
against a. I think what you actually want is to merge all 3 commits
into a single commit. You could read a short description about that
here [1]. Before doing anything backup your work though (git
format-patch origin/master).

I did google, but the link you gave helped clarify and show what I needed.

It looks as though all went well, - "Your branch is ahead of
'origin/master' by 1 commit." In qgit, there is, in red, a dead-end
branch showing the three original commits, and another line to my master
with the new single commit.

BTW: In the future when you need to commit code that you feel that it
should part of a previous commit use:
git commit --amend

Thanks for that, too, and to Jack.

Just querying whether or not all is well here.

As I said above, "In qgit, there is, in red, a dead-end
branch showing the three original commits, and another line to my master
with the new single commit."

I was about to do a git --amend to add the small changes resulting from my battles with connects, but my profile branch head is the single line change, (c) above, but I think I need to be amending the commit in master, which is the combination of the three commits.

I'm wondering if what I actually did yesterday was incorrect, as my branch seems wrong now.

Perhaps I should hold off until the current commits are eventually pushed? The problem with the connects is pretty unlikely to show up in real life.
