Subject: Using two-dot range notation in `git rebase`?
Date: Wed, 28 Jul 2021 16:38:04 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <b3b5f044-8c76-ec71-45d6-1c7fea93c519@iee.email> (raw)
Is there a reasonable way to use the two-dot range notation in git
rebase, particularly in an --onto situation?
In my case I have a short series that depends on both some existing Git
for Windows (GfW) patches (`main` branch), and some patches now in
`git/master`. I'm now able to rebase it onto the GfW `shears/master`
branch which contains both sets of patches (and one that was in the last
git release).
It felt that it ought to be possible to use a simple two dot range to
extract my series, rather than identifying the individual end points in
a similar manner to that used in the description"set of commits .. shown
by `git log <upstream>..HEAD`".
Or is this something that could be a project?
