Meanwhile, I have retrained my muscle memory to stop before typing "-i" after "rebase" for an opportunity to consider whether bare rebase can be used.

What should I say? I am impressed. It's like 100 times faster than rebase -i (on Windows). I'm now using it whenever I can, and more often than not I plan my rebase workflow so that I can go ahead without -i.

Can't wait to test a re-roll on top of cc/apply-introduce-state!
