I don't see what that has to do with an invocation of 'git rebase' without arguments, and @{tail}. There's absolutely no way Git can figure out for you which is the appropriate place for you to rebase onto. However, it shouldn't be too difficult to write a tool that checks multiple commits and tells you on top of which ones a rebase could work, but I don't think 'git rebase' is the right place. -- Felipe Contreras -- 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
