Re-ordering commits that exist on a branch, (again, rebuilding > every commit that follows). I would actually propose to (gradually) add stg functionality into git. If = it was done in stgit-compatible fashion, it would allow using stgit for the bi= ts still not ported to git and switching back and forth according to user's taste. Many commands from stgit either already have git equivalent or do just a little work beyond what the git command already does, so they could be easily integrated. > [...] > I'd just love to see something more minimal, and incorporated into git > itself, to address the missing functionality.

I think that many of them would be actually pretty simple. --=20 Jan 'Bulb' Hudec --8t9RHnE3ZwKMSgU+ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGRAOXRel1vVwhjGURAkvYAKC1F6ij/0Oak5xWN7zl1UoBY0O1JgCgj6v5 PNRDx9ck924FSe8YfsFRFgs= =1sCG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --8t9RHnE3ZwKMSgU+--
