In the later steps of preparing a patch series I do not want to edit the patches any more, but just make sure the test suite passes after each patch. Currently I would run EDITOR=true git rebase -i <anchor> -x "make test" In an ideal world the command would be simpler and just be git rebase <anchor> -x "make test" to run the test for each commit I am about to send out for review. This patch enables the short line. As things can still break, I'd want to be able to fix those failures directly at the commit, so it is not sufficient to just use: git rev-list old...new | while read rev do $command || break done as it only tests and does not stop at a breakage to fix it up.
