I agree that the original proposal was clearly for the non-interactive rebase (it talked about .git/rebase-apply/). The biggest problem with the feature request is not how useful it would be: I agree it would be useful. The biggest problem is that it is a little bit of an ill-defined problem. Imagine that you are rebasing 30 patches. Now, let's assume that patch #7 causes a merge conflict, and you mistakenly call `git rebase --skip`. Now, when is the next possible time you can call `git rebase --undo-skip`? It could be after a merge conflict in #8. Or in interactive rebase, after a `pick` that was turned into an `edit`. Or, and this is also entirely possible, after the rebase finished with #30 without problems and the rebase is actually no longer in progress. So I do not think that there is a way, in general, to implement this feature. Even if you try to remember the state where a `--skip` was called, you would remember it in the .git/rebase-apply/ (or .git/rebase-merge/) directory, which is cleaned up after the rebase concluded successfully. So even then the information required to implement the feature would not necessarily be there, still, when it would be needed. Ciao, Johannes
