Subject: [PATCH] Make rebase save ORIG_HEAD if using current branch
Date: Tue, 6 May 2008 01:19:20 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080506051920.GA9165@Hermes.local> (raw)
This makes rebase act a little more like merge when working on the
current branch. This is particularly useful for `git pull --rebase`
Signed-off-by: Brian Gernhardt <benji@silverinsanity.com>

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.
