git rebase --continue automatic --skip?

[skillzero@gmail.com]

Is there a way to make git rebase --continue automatically do a --skip
if a conflict resolution ends up not needing the patch? Normally, git
rebase will just silently skip a patch if it's not needed, but if a
patch results in a conflict and I use git mergetool and end up
deleting all the changes, git rebase --continue stops and makes me
explicitly use --skip.

It's a not a big deal, but it happens a lot to me because I do work on
a branch that really should have gone on master, but I don't want to
disrupt my branch work (i.e. I'm lazy) so I do it directly on the
branch then later clean up those commits by isolating the parts that
are truly part of the topic vs parts that are unrelated. So I hit a
conflict, but want to take the version from master (so the commit
disappears from the branch).
