→Step 7: fixing common mistakes
</pre>
Later we discover that there are actually 2 occurances of '''color''' in that file, and we only changed the first one. Let's fix that and alter our commit using the <code>--amend</code> flag.
First, re-open the <code>docs/_includes/callout-warning-color-assistive-technologies.md</code> file in your editor, and correct the second '''color''' to '''colour'''. Then we can add and re-commit:
<pre>
$ git add docs/_includes/callout-warning-color-assistive-technologies.md
$ git commit --amend
</pre>
This will cause git to open your editor and let you edit your previous commit message. If you like it as is, just save the file and exit. NOTE: you can also use this method to fix a typo in your commit message, since it gives you a chance to change things.
After amending my commit, I can <code>git show</code> the commit and prove to myself that both uses of '''color''' have in fact been changed:

#### Conveying meaning to assistive technologies
-Using color to add meaning only provides a visual indication, which will not be conveyed to users of assistive technologies – such as screen readers. Ensure that information denoted by the color is either obvious from the content itself (e.g. the visible text), or is included through alternative means, such as additional text hidden with the `.sr-only` class.
