I was planning to write 'git diff -q commit^ commit'

'git diff commit^ commit | wc -l' instead?

I wrote a script to generate the list of empty commits.

git log --format="%h" --reverse 413cb08.. | while read H
do
   if git diff --quiet $H^ $H; then echo $H; fi
done >empty_commits

But it turns out all this is unnecessary, as git-rebase
will automatically filter empty commits! :-)
Unless given the --keep-empty option, I presume.

Thanks to everyone involved in making this great tool.
