[PATCH] Improve error output of git-rebase without any arguments

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

 



"git rebase" without arguments on initial startup showed:

	fatal: Needed a single revision
	invalid upstream

This patch makes it show the ordinary usage string.
For the case that .git/rebase-{apply,merge} exists,

	A rebase is in progress, try --continue, --skip or --abort.

is shown now.

	Stumbled across this today and looks for me like
	a patch for 1.6.0 :-)
