[PATCH 5/5] git-rebase: add keep_empty flag [v2]

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add a command line switch to git-rebase to allow a user the ability to specify
that they want to keep any commits in a series that are empty.

When git-rebase's type is am, then this option will automatically keep any
commit that has a tree object identical to its parent.

This patch changes the default behavior of interactive rebases as well.  With
this patch, git-rebase -i will produce a revision set passed to
git-revision-editor, in which empty commits are commented out.  Empty commits
may be kept manually by uncommenting them.  If the new --keep-empty option is
used in an interactive rebase the empty commits will automatically all be
uncommented in the editor.
