Hi folks,

is it somehow possible to filter out certain files on rebase operations. The problem is: I'm maintaining a lot of downstream branches, where sometimes upstream leaves in autogenerated files (eg. configure) which I want to get rid of. When I just remove them by another commit, I'll get conflicts on next rebase.
