Subject: [PATCH] A more sensible error message why 'git rebase --continue' failed
Date: Sun, 19 Aug 2007 18:13:38 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <11875724181583-git-send-email-evan@fallingsnow.net> (raw)
The current message is a bit cryptic, indicating that only changes which contained
merge conflicts should be added to the index, but in fact, all outstanding
changes must be.
The change could also incorporate a -i that prompts the user and performs
'git add -u' if they wish, allowing the rebase to properly continue.
