Yes it is displaying all steps. The line beginning by '*' is the current step. Trying to "guess" what is happening on the current step is quite hard. Between conflict, empty commits, stopped for amending and other, it's a lot of cases to handle. I'd rather have git-status deal with it (and you get your standard log/error fro your rebase/cp/am/revert command too). The idea here is really to find out where you are in your operation sequence. I've had a 700 patch series to reapply on a different subtree. Took me 3 days. This script was quite handy. (Also depressing as you can see how much work left there is). Also if you feel it's missing something you need, I'm accepting PR on github ;) >> Two questions: >> - Could this be a candidate for contrib/ ? > It seems to me that these days we don't often add new tools to contrib/. > >> - Would it be interesting to add the relevant code to sequencer.c so that >> all sequencer based commands could have a --status option ? > Yeah, it's probably better if it's integrated in git, either as a > --status option in some commands, or perhaps as an option of `git > status`. I'll have a look at what can be done. Thanks Nicolas
