Excluded when --ancestry-path is applied to what commit, exactly? To the commit being considered for rebase, or to the <upstream>, or to the 'fork_point'? Please notice that rebase claims to operate either on <upstream>..HEAD or 'fork_point'..HEAD range, and --ancestry-path without arguments applies to the left commit of the range when used in "git log". Looks like some clarifications are needed here, even though maybe not in these series? Thanks, -- Sergey Organov
