We could implement it with a git-replace--commit helper script that generates the replacement commit using the ...commit options... (to be defined what this should be), and git-replace would just pick its output (the SHA1 of the generated commit) as a substitute for the <replacement> argument that would have to be given without the --commit option. -- Hannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
