Do you just want to pick up my patch from earlier in the thread, or do
you have further comments? The only thing I could think to change would
be that we may not want to even bother advertising --continue in the
usage message (conversely, we could go a step further and actually
advertise it in the manpage).
I would say our eventual goal should be to make "--continue" the primary
word the end users would see. It would bring us closer to that goal to
start advertising --continue early.
OK. Then I think my patch is fine. But we could also do this if we
wanted to push it further now:

Subject: [PATCH] am: switch --resolved to --continue
Rebase calls this same function "--continue", which means
users may be trained to type it. There is no reason to
deprecate --resolved (or -r), so we will keep it as a
synonym.

Between this and the previous patch, I don't have a strong preference.
You can decide.
