Re: [RFC] Rebasing merges: a jorney to the ultimate solution(RoadClear)

Hi Buga,

I just have two thoughts to contribute as answer, so please excuse the
heavily cut quoted text:

Sometimes one just needs to read the manual, and I don`t really think
this is a ton complicated, but just something we didn`t really have
before (real merge rebasing), so it requires a moment to grasp the
concept.

If that were the case, we would not keep getting bug reports about
--preserve-merges failing to reorder patches.

Saying in favor of `--rebase-merges`, you mean as a separate option,
alongside `--recreate-merges` (once that series lands)?

No. I am against yet another option. The only reason I pollute the option
name space further with --recreate-merges is that it would be confusing to
users if the new mode was called --preserve-merges=v2 (but work *totally
differently*).

Ciao,
