Re: Interactive rebase with pre-built script?

But this could potentially be dangerous because if "rebase" fires up 
a editor for any other reason (e.g. having a "reword" or "squash" in 
your recipe), then the commit message will be messed up. So you need 
to make sure your recipe won't trigger any editor except for the recipe.

Indeed, that's why I don't want to do that. 

Are you expecting to have "reword" or "squash" in your recipe? If not, I 
think you should be safe.
If there's a conflict, then rebase will stop, and next time you run "git 
rebase --continue", your normal editor will be back.
 From your original description, it sounded like you are only doing "pick".

Perhaps I should add some switch that would append the contents of a 
specific file to the prebuild recipe, I guess that should be fairly 
easy. The question is what to call the switch.

How about calling the switch "--todo"? i.e. "rebase -i --todo my_recipe"
Can we also get some inputs from others on whether adding this switch to 
"rebase -i" is desirable?

Using "git cherry-pick $(git rev-list --reverse .....)" ought to work.

And I assume what Junio suggested doesn't help with your problem? 
Because of the time skewed behavior?
