Hey,
We use some bug prediction in coala which relies on the `Fixes` keyword in commit messages. To get good results from that we need to use `Closes` for normal issues instead of `Fixes` which should only be used for real bugs. (See also [the commit message docs](http://coala.io/commit).)
To change your message you just use `git commit --amend` and then `git push --force` the new commit to replace the old one.
If you're just looking to fix an issue very quickly and not interested in contributing to coala long term, we can fix up the message for you - just tell us :).
Cheers!
Hi,
It seems that your commit message doesn't contain enough information. Don't worry, most people don't know about good commit messages when they join us, including very experienced developers :) Standards vary from project to project.
The most important part is the first line of your commit message - maintainers will use it to read through a large number of commits and thus it's important that it's short but most importantly concise. I'd heartily recommend reading http://coala.io/commit !

Hi,
It looks like your PR is out of date and needs a rebase. [This page](http://coala.io/git) may help you to get started on this. (*Do not press the update branch button. It's evil.*)
We also have a quick video tutorial on how to rebase: [https://asciinema.org/a/78683](https://asciinema.org/a/78683). That should help you understand the basics of how it works and what you should be doing.
Add the original coala repository as a remote:
```
git remote add upstream https://github.com/coala-analyzer/coala.git
```
(Be sure to use the coala-bears URL if you're on coala bears!)
Then go to your branch and rebase it onto our master:
```
git checkout <yourbranch>
git fetch upstream
git rebase --interactive upstream/master
```
Now push it up. You will need to do a force push because you change history here (do not do this on master branches :)):
```
git push --force
```

Ping us on [our gitter channel](https://coala.io/chat) if you need help!
Uh-oh! You have have the dreaded merge commit. This is probably because you pushed the rebase(update branch from master) button in github. This is not the proper way of doing this and will break many things. Please do an interactive rebase on the commit before the merge commit and remove the merge commit line(see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17577409/git-remove-merge-commit-from-history). See https://api.coala.io/en/latest/Developers/Git_Basics.html#rebasing for the proper way to rebase.
(it's okay, we all make mistakes in git ;) )

Hi,
It looks like you're missing a railing newline before the end of the file here. [This article](http://stackoverflow.com/a/5813359/3212182) has more information about this issue.
Hey, this is your first contribution, right? Congrats and welcome to the coalaians! :)

We would really appreciate it if you could help us with
- some code reviews for other newcomers
- fixing at least a difficulty/low issue
We're all volunteers and we're currently struggling to keep this up. Helping all those newcomers is a lot of work and we do need your help so we can continue this for others!
Hey,
You have done two newcomer issues and it seems you're well acquainted with the workflow! That's awesome :)
We recommend to not do newcomer issues anymore because they take us more time to file than to fix them - let other newcomers can have a few as well. The next level for you are the [low difficulty issues](http://tinyurl.com/coala-low) - you can now dive into whatever you want. Let us know if you need help or have any special interests - there's a lot of stuff going on and usually interests can be met :)
Cheers!
