Re: Limitiations of git rebase --preserve-merges --interactive

Hi Stefan,

I've also done some archaeology and found that the original version of
the merge preserving code was written by Johannes Schindelin
[off-list ref], see e.g.
f09c9b8c5ff9d8a15499b09ccd6c3e7b3c76af77

There were also some big discussion threads in 2007-2008 regarding a
better mechanism to "mark" or "tag" the heads of rebased branches, but I
haven't seen consensus and development in that direction after that.

PS There are also some pieces of "what should work" in these tests:

t/t3409-rebase-preserve-merges.sh*
t/t3410-rebase-preserve-dropped-merges.sh*
t/t3411-rebase-preserve-around-merges.sh*
t/t3414-rebase-preserve-onto.sh*
