Can we add a check in "git rebase" so that it will refuse to run if stg is active?
The pre-rebase hook has been there since early Feb 2006.

Karl, Catalin, can stgit install a pre-rebase hook and disable 'git rebase' when stg is active on the branch? This would keep me from destroying my patch stack when my fingers get ahead of me. Might be good to disable anything else that can cause damage too. -- Jon Smirl jonsmirl@gmail.com

Mmmm. We'd have to define "damage"; "stg repair" can take care of
quite a lot of things nowadays. Committing new stuff on top of a patch
series is no problem, for example, and "git reset --hard HEAD^ && stg
repair" is equivalent to "stg pop". I can see how "git rebase" would
still be a nuisance, though.
Patch? :-)
Presumably, we'd want the hook to be a Python script, so as to
* not make it more difficult to port StGit to Windows someday;
* make it possible for the hook to call StGit functions; and
* not force the project's contributors to learn more shell scripting
than they have to. :-)
