Re: [PATCH] git-rebase -i: improve usage message

Junio C Hamano wrote:

The OPTIONS_SPEC in rebase--interactive is for the interactive mode and
for nothing else, so it may be a good idea to clearly say so at the
beginning.  The user experience perhaps should look like:

    $ git rebase -i -h
    Note: this help is only about the interactive mode;
    see 'git rebase -h' for help on non-interactive mode.

    usage: git rebase -i [<options>] [--] <upstream> [<branch>]
       or: git rebase -i (--continue|--abort|--skip)

Nit-pick: the last line is not correct; the user does not have to
specify -i for git-rebase to figure out that an interactive rebase is
in progress.

(I agree with the rest though.)
