I usually solve this by commiting my fixup in a dummy commit, then do a rebase -...

If you have `fzf` installed you might try this alias.

    frbi = "!f() { git rebase -i $(git log --pretty=oneline --color=always | fzf --ansi | cut -d ' ' -f1)^ ; }; f"

I do: `git frbi` (which in my mind means Fzf ReBase Interactive)

Then I can easily scroll up to the commit I want to start the rebase on.

Wow, I never realized that changing the order of commits in an interactive rebase was a legit operation.

Thanks for the tip!

Another way to handle this if you haven't made the change yet is to do a `git rebase -i head~4` (or however far back) and mark the place where the change needs to happen as "edit". Make your change, add the file, then `git rebase --continue`.

If you've already made the change but haven't committed it, you can stash it before doing the rebase, then pop the stash while editing that commit.
