Easy Dscho, easy ;) [meaning "take it such..."] I'm not sure what -p is supposed to do: A) Should it preserve all merge commits which it would need to rewrite? That is lot to ask. Previous behaviour (intended or not) seemed to be to do nothing in this case where the merge connects master and work. B) Should it preserve only merges in side branches? I seem to mean by that branches where the parents are on work and other branches but not on master. So at least on my side there is confusion about the intention behind '-p' (say design goal), and therefore about the expectation. > The more I think about it, I think it's possible I broke it with the > introduction of the "noop". > > However, there could be a _different_ test case where the current -p > handling shows the same error. Dunno. It certainly worked after the noop introduction before the r-i-p series, but not any more after. "worked" meaning it at least didn't leave out commits in this case (but reproduced the existing DAG). I'm getting the impression you suggest R.I.P. for r-i-p series ;) Fine with me...
