If I'm on branch topic and do "git rebase master", git performs two operations:
1. Rewind the current head to master.
2. For each commit in topic that isn't in master, cherry pick it onto
the current head.
I would like to be able to do (2) as a separate operation. For
example, if I start out on branch master and want to get all of
topic's commits on top of the current head, I currently do
git checkout topic
git rebase master
git branch -d master
git branch -m master
If I could do (2) as a separate operation, it would look something like
git cherry-pick-all topic
which is simpler and faster since it avoids switching files back and
forth (master to topic and back). Is there a robust way to achieve
the cherry-pick-all semantics with current commands? If not, how
difficult would it be to partition rebase accordingly?
Thanks,
Geoffrey
