So when rebase calculates the local changes it realises (from the reflog) that the state of master before this command was before you created the branch, so only commits after it should be picked. For the case when the upstream of a branch is remote, this is normally what you want. -- 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
