Hi Junio,

But then it wouldn't update the master branch... When I'm on myBranch and execute "git pull origin --rebase --stat master:master" it does bring the master branch up to date, so, it's equivalent to doing:

git checkout master git pull git checkout myBranch git rebase master

I have an alias for the pull command: "alias.rb=pull origin --rebase --stat master:master", so, it would be handier to just add the --reset-author-date to it but it's not supported atm :(
