>2. git rebase -i master fails unless I've rebased my branch on top of >master. I always wished I could do the equivalent of 'git rebase -i >master..', but I can't. Can we give the A..B syntax a new meaning in >the context of rebase, namely $(git merge-base A B)? If I understand well, you're refering to a problem that also annoys me, ie. using "rebase -i" to just edit your local commits, without rebasing onto the lastest revision on the upstream branch, right ? That is, just another wart of having a single command for arguably-different use cases, or of having the single-argument version of rebase use that argument for 2 very different things (cut-off point and destination), but I won't try to address either of these today :) In that case, what about just adding a new flag to "rebase -i", that would prevent the single-argument to be interpreted as destination ? I really consider this a workaround for a suboptimal CLI, but since we don't want to change the rebase CLI before at least 2.0, that could fill the gap for now. As for the flag itself, what about --here ? Obviously it would only be meaninglful together with -i, and be exclusive with --onto. -- Yann Dirson - Bertin Technologies -- 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
