You can also specify the commit at the end of the history to be rebased (very useful while trial runs to see where a series should apply): git rebase foo ":/Add B" This is already handled properly because it first gets turned into an object name $orig_head and then we use it (without ^0) to update the ORIG_HEAD. Even after this patch, there is git checkout -q "$onto^0" when detaching the HEAD to that commit. Can that peeling be dropped now (I am not suggesting to drop it in this patch)? What would happen when you are given "--onto :/f...o" is somewhat interesting, but that may be a separate topic, I think. At that point, it is probably in the realm of "don't do it then" ;-) > Signed-off-by: Ramkumar Ramachandra <artagnon@xxxxxxxxx> > --- > git-rebase.sh | 4 ++-- > t/t3400-rebase.sh | 2 +- > t/t3404-rebase-interactive.sh | 2 +- > 3 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/git-rebase.sh b/git-rebase.sh > index d0c11a9..6987b9b 100755 > --- a/git-rebase.sh > +++ b/git-rebase.sh > @@ -434,7 +434,7 @@ then > shift > ;; > esac > - upstream=`git rev-parse --verify "${upstream_name}^0"` || > + upstream=$(peel_committish "${upstream_name}") || > die "$(eval_gettext "invalid upstream \$upstream_name")" > upstream_arg="$upstream_name" > else > @@ -470,7 +470,7 @@ case "$onto_name" in > fi > ;; > *) > - onto=$(git rev-parse --verify "${onto_name}^0") || > + onto=$(peel_committish "$onto_name") || > die "$(eval_gettext "Does not point to a valid commit: \$onto_name")" > ;; > esac > diff --git a/t/t3400-rebase.sh b/t/t3400-rebase.sh > index 81ec517..cbca71e 100755 > --- a/t/t3400-rebase.sh > +++ b/t/t3400-rebase.sh > @@ -88,7 +88,7 @@ test_expect_success 'rebase fast-forward to master' ' > test_i18ngrep "Fast-forwarded HEAD to my-topic-branch" out > ' > > -test_expect_failure 'rebase, with <onto> and <upstream> specified as :/quuxery' ' > +test_expect_success 'rebase, with <onto> and <upstream> specified as :/quuxery' ' > test_when_finished "git branch -D torebase" && > git checkout -b torebase my-topic-branch^ && > upstream=$(git rev-parse ":/Add B") && > diff --git a/t/t3404-rebase-interactive.sh b/t/t3404-rebase-interactive.sh > index eb241f5..86917d1 100755 > --- a/t/t3404-rebase-interactive.sh > +++ b/t/t3404-rebase-interactive.sh > @@ -947,7 +947,7 @@ test_expect_success 'rebase -i respects core.commentchar' ' > test B = $(git cat-file commit HEAD^ | sed -ne \$p) > ' > > -test_expect_failure 'rebase -i, with <onto> and <upstream> specified as :/quuxery' ' > +test_expect_success 'rebase -i, with <onto> and <upstream> specified as :/quuxery' ' > test_when_finished "git branch -D torebase" && > git checkout -b torebase branch1 && > upstream=$(git rev-parse ":/J") && -- 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
