I'm changing the history of an old repo.
When the messages are in Spanish and some accent appears, the rebase fails and I usually have to abort it.
I have managed to fix it on occasion with combinations of
git rebase --edit-todo
git rebase --continue
and removing / editing the file "COMMIT_EDITMSG" from the .git folder of the project. Other times I could not do anything, it gives me messages like unable --edit-todo and I see conflicts in the files to solve to continue ...
I know it is not advisable to touch the commit history, but I would like to know if is there a procedure that can be followed step by step when these types of errors appear?
