Signature

(magit-diff-edit-hunk-commit)

Documentation

From a hunk, edit the respective commit and visit the file.

First visit the file being modified by the hunk at the correct location using magit-diff-visit-file. This actually visits a blob. When point is on a diff header, not within an individual hunk, then this visits the blob the first hunk is about.

Then invoke magit-edit-line-commit, which uses an interactive rebase to make the commit editable, or if that is not possible because the commit is not reachable from HEAD by checking out that commit directly. This also causes the actual worktree file to be visited.

Neither the blob nor the file buffer are killed when finishing the rebase. If that is undesirable, then it might be better to use magit-rebase-edit-commit instead of this command.
