Subject: Why won't "git rebase -Xrenormalize -i $REBASE_SHA" do anything?
Date: Mon, 31 Jan 2022 12:01:50 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220131110149.GE16463@raven.inka.de> (raw)

Hello,

I've added "* text=auto" to an existing repo with a completely linear history.

Now, as expected, every rebase operation gives me lots of conflicts, which are
hard to resolve.

So I'd like to clean up the history:

  $ git rebase -Xrenormalize -i $REBASE_SHA

But this turns out to be a no-op? It says immediately

  Successfully rebased and updated refs/heads/wip-normalize

without even the counter which is usually output to show progress during an
interactive rebase as it is working through the rebase-todo. I can confirm
that nothing has happened by checking the sha of the branch.

So, what am I missing? How would I renormalize all the commits of a branch?
The branch has linear history, no merges there.

Thanks,

--
