Subject: [PATCH v2 6/7] rebase --keep-base: imply --reapply-cherry-picks
Date: Wed, 07 Sep 2022 14:37:49 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <faad7eaf0d62f084ec6c8dc6a057bb861a0e64eb.1662561470.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.1323.v2.git.1662561470.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Phillip Wood <phillip.wood@dunelm.org.uk>
As --keep-base does not rebase the branch it is confusing if it
removes commits that have been cherry-picked to the upstream branch.
As --reapply-cherry-picks is not supported by the "apply" backend this
commit ensures that cherry-picks are reapplied by forcing the upstream
commit to match the onto commit unless --no-reapply-cherry-picks is
given.
