Re: [PATCH] git-rebase--interactive.sh: Add new command "shell"

BTW, about people feeling at ease with "rebase -i", I often feel not
quite comfortable to explain why to reorder commits you have to use
this "rebase" feature

I feel a bit the same. Actually, I don't think I ever used "rebase -i"
to actually perform a rebase. I usually "git pull --rebase" to rebase,
and "rebase -i" to rewrite history without changing the origin of the
branch.

alias.reroll = rebase -i $(git merge-base HEAD @{upstream})

Mercurial calls this "histedit" for example.
