Hi,

I would like to implement a new command git rebase --status to inform the user about the current rebase session. Here is a sample of what I think it could look like in case of merge conflict:

git rebase --status You are in the middle of a rebase session. The line that paused this session is: pick 848a16f commit with conflicts CONFLICT (content): Merge conflict in file1 Consult and edit remaining actions with git rebase --edit-todo 

In case of syntax error:

git rebase --status You are in the middle of a rebase session. The line that paused this session is: tick 848a16f syntax error SYNTAX ERROR Consult and edit remaining actions with git rebase --edit-todo 

In case of error during the execution of a script:

git rebase --status You are in the middle of a rebase session. The line that paused this session is: exec exit 3 ERROR IN SCRIPT EXECUTION Consult and edit remaining actions with git rebase --edit-todo 

Do you think it could be usefull or do you have any suggestion? 
Thanks, 
Guillaume Pagès
