[PATCH] Make rebase save ORIG_HEAD if using current branch

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This makes rebase act a little more like merge when working on the
current branch.  This is particularly useful for `git pull --rebase`

 I was trying to figure out why reviewing the new changes in git was so
 hard using my `git log ORIG_HEAD..` alias.  Turns out my ORIG_HEAD
 hadn't been updated since Feburary, which is when I set
 branch.master.rebase to true.

 I think ORIG_HEAD should be set every time a pull changes HEAD, whether
 by a merge or rebase.  Making rebase act like merge seemed more elegant
 than having git-pull set ORIG_HEAD iff using rebase.
