during interactive rebasing, i sometimes find it necessary to move a hunk from one commit to a later one in the branch. now, if that hunk cannot be re-ordered with the later commit due to conflicting with it, it becomes necessary to squash the later commit onto a temporary commit created from the extracted hunk, not the other way around (or using a stash). unfortunately, this causes the author date of the later commit to be reset, which can rather seriously falsify the date if the branch is long-lived.
You want `fixup -C` in the todo-list. See the hints near the end of the todo-list. -- Hannes
