Hi Stefan,

just wanted to express my gratitude for your idea to introduce the `break`
command in `git rebase -i`'s todo list. I use it *all* the time now.

Ciao,
Dscho

+1. Before that, I was using `x bash`, and ended up doing `git rebase
--continue` in that shell in many cases, which didn't end up so well
when I terminated said shell (just an error message, though, nothing
actually broke as a consequence). This feature is a blessing.

You're welcome. As you know I am currently taking a break form #git,
and it turns out I had my email filters configured wrongly, which means
I just realized there is a bunch of emails where I am cc'd.

I do not use the break command myself yet, as I am stuck with
an older git version on Mac for now (Macs and Git don't seem to
go well together, if only there was an active Apple upstream person...).

Cheers,
Stefan

'x bash' will start another shell, that seems an odd thing to do.

I have been using 'x false' to generate an error exit status to interrupt
the rebase and drop into the current shell. Then 'git rebase --continue'
to resume.

I usually use Homebrew to fix that...

Indeed, but it used to work quite well for me, too. I usually made extra
sure to start a new session by using `exec bash -i`...

That's not so scriptable. I have a couple of scripts around the
interactive rebase.

Besides, `b` is much shorter to type than `x false` (and I also cannot
tyop it late at night as `x flase`, although that would have the same
effect, I guess, of stopping the interactive rebase).

Ciao,
Johannes
