Subject: [PATCH v2 0/1] Fix rebase -p --onto
Message-ID: <20090722163738.GO7503@vinegar-pot.mit.edu>

I sent a version of the following patch last week to fix the behavior
of rebase -p to respect --onto.  Some questions were raised and I
believe I've addressed all of them.

The code already distinguishes the cases Junio described in a natural
way, as demonstrated by a test case in the revised patch.  The use
case Hannes described has never worked, as Dscho explained, and in any
case concerns a different part of the code from this patch -- when the
great day comes that rebase -i -p can reorder commits, this patch will
work smoothly with that.

Are there further comments?  If not, I believe this is ready for merge.
