ASIDE: i know of several ways to do this, i'm just wondering if there's a particularly elegant way i haven't thought of.
SCENARIO: most recent 5 commits on a clean, linear history branch: ... X <--- A <--- B <--- C <--- D <--- E (HEAD) suddenly, i wish i hadn't done A, but want to leave the more recent commits on that branch (rebased of course). pretty sure i can do an interactive rebase, as in: $ git rebase -i X then when i get my editing session with: pick A pick B pick C pick D pick E i can remove the first line and save to get: ... X <--- B' <--- C' <--- D' <--- E' (HEAD) is there a way to do that without having to fire up an interactive rebase session? oh, wait, can't i just rebase B onto X? effectively, i want to reproduce the work from B to E as if it originated at X; isn't that just a regular rebase? thoughts? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
