Subject: pull: allow interactive rebase with --rebase=interactive
or something? The same comment applies for the other patches in this series, and other recent patches from you in general.

That, especially the "incidentally" part, makes it sound as if it is "because we can easily", not "because it is useful in such and such way, we must support it". We definitely want to see patches that fall into the latter category, and from the sound of 0/3, I think this one should be advertised as such.
The patch text looks good (admittedly from only a cursory read, though).
Thanks.
