It successfully run through the end. After rebasing f1bb07af ("rebase-1" in your repository) on to a989705 (near the tip of Linus), I did git diff --stat --summary a989705...f1bb07af git diff --stat --summary a989705...HEAD (that is, "show me the change since the merge base") and the results from these two diffs match exactly. So I think I can declare victory for now ;-). However. I usually have "[apply] whitespace = strip" in my ~/.gitconfig, but during this verification run, I disabled it to keep rebase from falling back to 3-way merge using merge-recursive. If I turn it on, rebase still fails and I strongly suspect "rebase -m" would fail the same way, although I haven't tried it (it takes too much time). I'll be somewhat busy this weekend, so I would welcome anybody else beating me to fixing the problem in merge-recursive. - 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
