Interesting. When running an unnecessary "git rerere" (because it already was run and recorded the preimage), we used to be silent. With the updated code, we say something. At least it seems that we do not record the same preimage as a different variant, so the regression is hopefully merely cosmetic. I do not think it is a crime to say "git rerere" repeatedly without changing anything, so I do not think "rebase -i"'s call to rerere in die_with_patch is wrong, even though some calls to it seem to be made after seeing a "git merge" fail (which means we know 'rerere' has been run already). I think all plumbing that can turn an index into unmerged state has a call to git_rerere() at the end (the only obvious exception being "update-index" that lets you stuff higher stage entries to the index), so as long as "rebase -i" uses them correctly, I suspect that die_with_patch shouldn't have to have a call to "git rerere". -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
