You did _what_?

The directory .dotest/ contains metadata of the rebase. That you have to add it probably means that your commits contain files in that directory. Which is bogus.

Just another proof that we were right to move .dotest/ into .git/ (which you will benefit from after an upgrade).

Ciao, Dscho
