Why do you ask? He obviously has "a very good brain" ;-)

Seriously again, Git's source code is not that hard to read, and the Git developer community is pretty helpful when anybody asks for pointers what code to change.

Having said that, I did reimplement some parts of the shell script that is git-rebase--interactive.sh [*1*] in C and am in the process of getting those integrated into the next (or hopefully not a *much* later) version of Git.

So what I'd like to see is an *exact* copy-paste of a message in question, and a *concrete* proposal how it should look like instead.

Ciao, Johannes
