In other words, shouldn't the usual "try > to carry forward from the original invocation (saved in the state > file), but allow overriding from the command line" rule apply? Actually, I do not care _too_ deeply between * You can only give "--[no-]rerere-autoupdate" at the beginning and cannot change your mind later. and * The "--[no-]rerere-autoupdate" you give at the beginning is used throughout your multi-commit cherry-pick session, but you can give an opposite one from the command line when you say "--continue", and in that case it takes effect only for a single commit. If I understand correctly, the former is what 5-6/6 implements. The latter makes it more in line with how "am -3" followed by "am --no-3 --continue" behaves. Thanks.
