I was actually assuming that you would leave them as they are i.e. "# HEAD detached at xxx", as we agreed that we will see them improved anyway by the other topic. I am still puzzled to see that the change to checkout comes at the very end. With "do not depend on rebase reflog messages" done before the "checkout: respect reflog-action", I was hoping that we can have changes to the actual reflog message made to rebase (patch 2 and 3) can be done at the very end. Was I missing something else? In other words, the order I was anticipating to see after the discussion (this is different from saying "A series that is not ordered like this is unacceptable") was: > wt-status: remove unused field in grab_1st_switch_cbdata This is an unrelated clean-up, and can be done before anything else. > t/checkout-last: checkout - doesn't work after rebase This spells out what we want to happen at the end and marks the current breakage. > status: do not depend on rebase reflog messages This compensates for fallouts from the next change. > checkout: respect GIT_REFLOG_ACTION And this is the fix, the most important step. > rebase: prepare to write reflog message for checkout > rebase -i: prepare to write reflog message for checkout And these are icing on the cake, but that cannot be done before status is fixed. -- 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
