Same as they are informed of what the different commands do and that they can remove commits. --- Hi, I was using git rebase -i for some time now and never occured to me I could reorder the commit lines to affect the order the commits are applied, learnt that recently from a git tutorial, I must admit I have now checked the man page and it's well explained, but remarking that on the user-input screen is an useful addition imo.
