Hi folks,


suppose the following situation:

I've forked some branch A into B, now A and B have evolved
independently for quite some time into A' and B'. Now I'd like
to rebase B' along A' history line step by step - first on A+1,
then A+3, ... until A' (that's what I'd call zip-rebase).

This is just what "git rebase"  does:

$ git checkout B'
$ git rebase A'

Yes, but I need to find out A+1 for my zip-rebase.

git rev-list [--first-parent] A..A' | tac |
while read rev; do git rebase $rev; done

Andreas.
