While working on patches to teach `git rebase -i` to recreate branch topology properly, i.e. replace the design of `--preserve-merges` by something much better, I stumbled across a couple of issues that I thought I should fix on the way. The patches are based on lb/rebase-i-short-command-names, mainly because the new `--recreate-merges` patches benefit from the patch "rebase -i: update functions to use a flags parameter", and I was too lazy to resolve the merge conflicts while rebasing the patch "sequencer: do not invent whitespace when transforming OIDs" to the current `master` branch. Oh, and by the way, the `--recreate-merges` feature already works. I used it to develop the patches themselves. I do not have time to pass one last time over them, so they'll have to wait for next year to see the Git mailing list. If anyone wants to have a look over them, play with them, or even wants to review the patches: https://github.com/git/git/compare/master...dscho:sequencer-shears Johannes Schindelin (5): rebase: do not continue when the todo list generation failed sequencer: strip bogus LF at end of error messages sequencer: remove superfluous conditional sequencer: report when noop has an argument sequencer: do not invent whitespace when transforming OIDs git-rebase--interactive.sh | 3 ++- sequencer.c | 30 ++++++++++++++++++------------ 2 files changed, 20 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) base-commit: 1795993488bef1b48e4224db096e9d12df075db2 Based-On: lb/rebase-i-short-command-names at https://github.com/dscho/git Fetch-Base-Via: git fetch https://github.com/dscho/git lb/rebase-i-short-command-names Published-As: https://github.com/dscho/git/releases/tag/sequencer-cleanups-v1 Fetch-It-Via: git fetch https://github.com/dscho/git sequencer-cleanups-v1 -- 2.15.1.windows.2
