[RFC PATCH] sequencer: warn on skipping previously seen commit

From: Josh Steadmon <hidden>

Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

Silently skipping commits when rebasing with --no-reapply-cherry-picks
(currently the default behavior) can cause user confusion. Issue a
warning in this case so that users are aware of what's happening.

Signed-off-by: Josh Steadmon <redacted>

We've had some complaints at $JOB where users were confused when
rebasing branches that contained commits that were previously
cherry-picked into their master branch. How do folks feel about adding a
warning in this case?
