Hi Andrey,

(I must say I am not sure to understand the workflow you're using, I
suspect there were some missing steps in your mail).

You probably want "stg rebase <parent branch>", unless you have
commits below your stack base, and that you get a merge commit when
running "git pull".

In the latter case, there is possibly a missing feature: you can get a
merge through git-pull, but you cannot pass the refspec any more.  If
there is a use for this (other than the one already handled by
"rebase"), I'd like to understand the need, so we can add the feature
back in a better way.

Best regards,
