You are missing something - either, you miss to describe some additional steps you did between these two commands (in which case we have no chance to comment at all), or you miss how git works. Sorry if I failed to give a clear explanation, I'll try again. 1) Lets say this is a simplified part of the commit log after I cloned the repo and created my branch with git checkout -b bisect v2008.10 tag_v1.3.3 commitA commitB commitC tag_v2008.10 2) then I commit my own patches at the top with git am 0001-myPatch1.patch 0002-myPatch2.patch tag_v1.3.3 commitA commitB commitC tag_v2008.10 myPatch1 myPatch2 3) then I try to git rebase -i v1.3.3 to reorder the commits in my branch in the following way (which failed): tag_v1.3.3 commitA myPatch1 commitB myPatch2 commitC tag_v2008.10 4) After that I wanted to do a git bisect between tag_v1.3.3 and tag_v2008.10 to find the commit when my port stops working. If you have a patchset against v1.3.3, my approach would be to create a branch, for example like this: git-checkout -b my-test-branch v1.3.3 then apply the patches, commit these, and then (with my-test-branch checked out), you could try a git-rebase -i master. I see, this would move my patches from after tag_v1.3.3 up to HEAD, but what I tried to accomplish was to distribute them back in the timeline to make bisect work at each point between v1.3.3 and v2008.10. Lets say there is the commit commit 0e8d158664a913392cb01fb11a948d83f72e105e Author: Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD plagn...@jcrosoft.com Date: Wed Sep 10 22:48:06 2008 +0200 rename CFG_ENV macros to CONFIG_ENV Signed-off-by: Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD plagn...@jcrosoft.com and I have a patch rename_CFG_ENV_to_CONFIG_ENV_myBoard.patch, so I would like to put it directly after above commit, so u-boot compiles before and after these two patches during the bisect process. But I already managed to do it using git merge.

You said, you patches were based on v1.3.3 - then you must branch off v1.3.3: git-checkout -b your_branch v1.3.3 tag_v1.3.3 commitA commitB commitC tag_v2008.10 Will give: tag_v1.3.3 x-- your_branch---+ commitA commitB commitC tag_v2008.10 2) then I commit my own patches at the top with git am 0001-myPatch1.patch 0002-myPatch2.patch tag_v1.3.3 commitA commitB commitC tag_v2008.10 myPatch1 myPatch2 That makes no sense, if your patches are based on 1.3.3 - most probably, they will not even apply correctly on top of v2008.10; what you need is this: tag_v1.3.3 x-- your_branch---+ commitA myPatch1 commitB myPatch2 commitC tag_v2008.10 3) then I try to git rebase -i v1.3.3 to reorder the commits in my branch in the following way (which failed): That's wrong again. Here you need to do a git rebase -i master, which will move the point where you branched off the master branch (marked in the pictures above with 'x') to the top of tree commit; if successful, the result will then look like this: tag_v1.3.3 commitA myPatch1 commitB myPatch2 commitC tag_v2008.10 tag_v1.3.3 commitA commitB commitC tag_v2008.10 x-- your_branch---+ myPatch1' myPatch2' 4) After that I wanted to do a git bisect between tag_v1.3.3 and tag_v2008.10 to find the commit when my port stops working. Using bisect makes absolutely no sense to me in this context. I see, this would move my patches from after tag_v1.3.3 up to HEAD, but what I tried to accomplish was to distribute them back in the timeline to make bisect work at each point between v1.3.3 and v2008.10. You cannot go backward. You could only start your own branch, and then git-cherry-pick one patch after the other from the master branch, and after each step clean up / add fixes as needed. Then you can git-rebase -i your branch to consolidate patches.

[U-Boot] problem doing rebase in fresh git.denx.de/u-boot.git clone
Hi all, I just tried to do a git bisect in my clone of the u-boot git repo to trace some commits in the past, but I noticed there is a problem doing a rebase in an unchanged fresh clone of git.denx.de/u-boot.git. Thats what I did: ~$ git --version git version 1.5.6.5 ~$ git clone git://git.denx.de/u-boot.git Initialized empty Git repository in /home/pvollmer/u-boot/.git/ remote: Counting objects: 80730, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (16904/16904), done. remote: Total 80730 (delta 66116), reused 77805 (delta 63347) Receiving objects: 100% (80730/80730), 26.96 MiB | 5812 KiB/s, done.

I have some patches that apply against v1.3.3 and work fine. Moving them to v2008.10 did not work so far, so I try to find a relevant change somewhere in between v1.3.3 and v2008.10 by bisecting, and I wanted to fit in a couple of needed changes to my patches (renamed #defines etc.) at the right place in the timeline using git rebase -i and replacing my commits, so that at least the compilation will run through at any given point in time when bisecting it. git rebase -i v1.3.3 did not work, and then doing git rebase v1.3.3 in an untouched fresh repository (i.e just branching of at tag v1.3.3, and reapplying all the patches between v1.3.3 and HEAD) didn't work either. I'm not sure if thats the normal behaviour of git-rebase, usually it worked for me like that. But then I never tried it with a complete upstream repository before. I guess I try without the rebase and just use git merge into a new branch, which should work without a problem.
