Alban abided by your wish and smooshed those patch series into one honking
big one, to grow even further with his ongoing work. I have to admit that
I am not enthusiastic about this, as it will make it even harder to
squeeze in the time for me to review those patches.

The latest iteration of this is here:
https://public-inbox.org/git/20180702105717.26386-5-alban.gruin@xxxxxxxxx/T/#r8eea71077745d6f2c839acb6200bb8b2bea579d3

I would *strongly* encourage you to allow Alban to go back to the small,
incremental patch series he sent before, because it will make it
*substantially* easier to not only review, but also develop, and for you
to merge.

In this case, for example, the two patches in
https://public-inbox.org/git/20180702105717.26386-4-alban.gruin@xxxxxxxxx/
and
https://public-inbox.org/git/20180702105717.26386-5-alban.gruin@xxxxxxxxx/
are ready to go into `next`, like, right now.

Yet because they are now embedded in a larger patch series, they will have
to be re-rolled over and over again until *all* of
`git-rebase--interactive.sh` is rewritten in C?  That's really wasteful of
reviewers' time.

Ciao,
Dscho
