I like the color "halt". Nice. I like this one as well. After some more thinking (triggered by Junio's recent post in another subthread), it occured to me that the current behaviour (currently known as "edit") is not something that is applied to one of the commits in the rebase list per se, but rather something that affects the rebase machinery *between* commits. So instead of edit e8902c1 Foo we should consider something like pick e8902c1 Foo halt which I think better encapsulates the current behaviour. (IOW, insert "halt" wherever you'd like to muck about with the history; e.g. doing "commit --amend", inserting extra commits, etc.) We can then make shortcuts for common actions: amend e8902c1 Foo does a "pick" followed by "commit --amend" (for editing the commit message), followed by "rebase --continue". Finally, we implement Anders' suggestion: modify e8902c1 Foo (or whatever synonym for "edit" we converge on) does a "pick" followed by a "reset --soft HEAD^", followed by a "halt".
