Oh. ;) I am not sure. I personally think that --forget is a better name than --quit because when I hear --quit I tend to look into the manual page first to check if there are weird side effects (and then the manual page says that it "forgets" ;D). So I'd rather favor adding --forget to cherry-pick/revert instead... or this: > Having said that, I have a feeling that these options do not have to > exist; isn't their presence just a symptom that the "--abort" for > the command misbehaves? Isn't the reason why there is no need for > "am --quit" because its "--abort" behaves more sensibly? You're probably right. I have no other use-case in mind than "oh I forgot that I was rebasing... now just abort that and don't bother me further (i.e. please don't bring me back)" ~Stephan
