initial release was made for 2.4.0, then 2.4.3 was prepared for experimental, but that was made not in usual branches master and upstream, but in master-experimental and upstream-experimental. After a while master-experimental was merged into master, but upstream-experimental not, so the last version in upstream was 2.4.0. So, when I run `git import-orig' it was unable to merge upstream into master properly. I had thought 'wtf?' and run mergetool (it was a very bad decision, I know, `git merge upstream upstream-experimental' is proper one). >> So now ruby-sprockets repository >> requires `git rebase -i' (and ruby-atomic requires it too, but it >> doesn't in so ugly state). > could you please ellaborate on why `git rebase -i` is required?

Cause now it has 2 merges of `upstream/2.10.0' into master, and the first one should be removed. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
