(Got the idea from: https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/SmallProjectsIdeas#git_rebase_--status) When in the middle of a rebase, users can be easily confused about what to do, or where they are in the rebase process. All the information is available in .git/rebase-merge/, but I believe it would be helpful to have a command (for example 'git rebase --status') which would explicitely indicate the state of the process. For instance, the output could look like: $ git rebase --status Rebasing my_last_commit onto base_commit Already applied 2 patches: b170635... my_commit_message b170635... my_commit_message Currently applying b170635... my_commit_message 2 patches left to apply: b170635... my_commit_message b170635... my_commit_message Another nice thing could be to improve the output of 'git status' by saying the number of patches left to apply. As an example, it could say: You are currently rebasing (patch 3/5). What do you think? Does the name rebase --status seem appropriate? Should the output be providing more/less information?
