17 | DESCRIPTION |
18 | ----------- | |
0b444cdb | 19 | If <branch> is specified, 'git rebase' will perform an automatic |
328c6cb8 | 20 | `git switch <branch>` before doing anything else. Otherwise |
5ca2db53 SP |
21 | it remains on the current branch. |
22 | ||
15a147e6 | 23 | If <upstream> is not specified, the upstream configured in |
f51a48ec SO |
24 | branch.<name>.remote and branch.<name>.merge options will be used (see |
25 | linkgit:git-config[1] for details) and the `--fork-point` option is | |
26 | assumed. If you are currently not on any branch or if the current | |
27 | branch does not have a configured upstream, the rebase will abort. | |
15a147e6 | 28 | |
5ca2db53 SP |
29 | All changes made by commits in the current branch but that are not |
30 | in <upstream> are saved to a temporary area. This is the same set | |
f51a48ec SO |
31 | of commits that would be shown by `git log <upstream>..HEAD`; or by |
32 | `git log 'fork_point'..HEAD`, if `--fork-point` is active (see the | |
33 | description on `--fork-point` below); or by `git log HEAD`, if the | |
34 | `--root` option is specified. | |
5ca2db53 SP |
35 | |
36 | The current branch is reset to <upstream>, or <newbase> if the | |
37 | --onto option was supplied. This has the exact same effect as | |
9869099b BG |
38 | `git reset --hard <upstream>` (or <newbase>). ORIG_HEAD is set |
39 | to point at the tip of the branch before the reset. | |
5ca2db53 SP |
40 | |
41 | The commits that were previously saved into the temporary area are | |
ff905462 JK |
42 | then reapplied to the current branch, one by one, in order. Note that |
43 | any commits in HEAD which introduce the same textual changes as a commit | |
44 | in HEAD..<upstream> are omitted (i.e., a patch already accepted upstream | |
45 | with a different commit message or timestamp will be skipped). | |
69a60af5 | 46 | |
031321c6 SE |
47 | It is possible that a merge failure will prevent this process from being |
48 | completely automatic. You will have to resolve any such merge failure | |
cc120056 | 49 | and run `git rebase --continue`. Another option is to bypass the commit |
5960bc9d | 50 | that caused the merge failure with `git rebase --skip`. To check out the |
51ef1daa JS |
51 | original <branch> and remove the .git/rebase-apply working files, use the |
52 | command `git rebase --abort` instead. | |
031321c6 | 53 | |
69a60af5 CW |
54 | Assume the following history exists and the current branch is "topic": |
55 | ||
031321c6 | 56 | ------------ |
69a60af5 CW |
57 | A---B---C topic |
58 | / | |
59 | D---E---F---G master | |
031321c6 | 60 | ------------ |
69a60af5 | 61 | |
228382ae | 62 | From this point, the result of either of the following commands: |
69a60af5 | 63 | |
031321c6 | 64 | |
b1889c36 JN |
65 | git rebase master |
66 | git rebase master topic | |
69a60af5 CW |
67 | |
68 | would be: | |
69 | ||
031321c6 | 70 | ------------ |
69a60af5 CW |
71 | A'--B'--C' topic |
72 | / | |
73 | D---E---F---G master | |
031321c6 | 74 | ------------ |
69a60af5 | 75 | |
ee55703b DN |
76 | *NOTE:* The latter form is just a short-hand of `git checkout topic` |
77 | followed by `git rebase master`. When rebase exits `topic` will | |
78 | remain the checked-out branch. | |
69a60af5 | 79 | |
ff905462 JK |
80 | If the upstream branch already contains a change you have made (e.g., |
81 | because you mailed a patch which was applied upstream), then that commit | |
b1889c36 | 82 | will be skipped. For example, running `git rebase master` on the |
e08bc7a9 | 83 | following history (in which `A'` and `A` introduce the same set of changes, |
ff905462 JK |
84 | but have different committer information): |
85 | ||
86 | ------------ | |
87 | A---B---C topic | |
88 | / | |
89 | D---E---A'---F master | |
90 | ------------ | |
91 | ||
92 | will result in: | |
93 | ||
94 | ------------ | |
95 | B'---C' topic | |
96 | / | |
97 | D---E---A'---F master | |
98 | ------------ | |

100 | Here is how you would transplant a topic branch based on one |
101 | branch to another, to pretend that you forked the topic branch | |
102 | from the latter branch, using `rebase --onto`. | |
69a60af5 | 103 | |
e52775f4 | 104 | First let's assume your 'topic' is based on branch 'next'. |
e2b850b2 | 105 | For example, a feature developed in 'topic' depends on some |
e52775f4 | 106 | functionality which is found in 'next'. |
69a60af5 | 107 | |
031321c6 | 108 | ------------ |
e52775f4 JN |
109 | o---o---o---o---o master |
110 | \ | |
111 | o---o---o---o---o next | |
112 | \ | |
113 | o---o---o topic | |
114 | ------------ | |
115 | ||
e2b850b2 GD |
116 | We want to make 'topic' forked from branch 'master'; for example, |
117 | because the functionality on which 'topic' depends was merged into the | |
118 | more stable 'master' branch. We want our tree to look like this: | |
e52775f4 JN |
119 | |
120 | ------------ | |
121 | o---o---o---o---o master | |
122 | | \ | |
123 | | o'--o'--o' topic | |
124 | \ | |
125 | o---o---o---o---o next | |
031321c6 | 126 | ------------ |
7fc9d69f | 127 | |
e52775f4 JN |
128 | We can get this using the following command: |
129 | ||
b1889c36 | 130 | git rebase --onto master next topic |
e52775f4 JN |
131 | |
132 | ||
133 | Another example of --onto option is to rebase part of a | |
134 | branch. If we have the following situation: | |
135 | ||
136 | ------------ | |
137 | H---I---J topicB | |
138 | / | |
139 | E---F---G topicA | |
140 | / | |
141 | A---B---C---D master | |
142 | ------------ | |
143 | ||
144 | then the command | |
145 | ||
b1889c36 | 146 | git rebase --onto master topicA topicB |
e52775f4 JN |
147 | |
148 | would result in: | |
149 | ||
150 | ------------ | |
151 | H'--I'--J' topicB | |
152 | / | |
153 | | E---F---G topicA | |
154 | |/ | |
155 | A---B---C---D master | |
156 | ------------ | |
157 | ||
158 | This is useful when topicB does not depend on topicA. | |
159 | ||
ea81fcc5 SP |
160 | A range of commits could also be removed with rebase. If we have |
161 | the following situation: | |
162 | ||
163 | ------------ | |
164 | E---F---G---H---I---J topicA | |
165 | ------------ | |
166 | ||
167 | then the command | |
168 | ||
b1889c36 | 169 | git rebase --onto topicA~5 topicA~3 topicA |
ea81fcc5 SP |
170 | |
171 | would result in the removal of commits F and G: | |
172 | ||
173 | ------------ | |
174 | E---H'---I'---J' topicA | |
175 | ------------ | |
176 | ||
177 | This is useful if F and G were flawed in some way, or should not be | |
178 | part of topicA. Note that the argument to --onto and the <upstream> | |
179 | parameter can be any valid commit-ish. | |
180 | ||
0b444cdb TR |
181 | In case of conflict, 'git rebase' will stop at the first problematic commit |
182 | and leave conflict markers in the tree. You can use 'git diff' to locate | |
031321c6 | 183 | the markers (<<<<<<) and make edits to resolve the conflict. For each |
2de9b711 | 184 | file you edit, you need to tell Git that the conflict has been resolved, |
031321c6 SE |
185 | typically this would be done with |
186 | ||
187 | ||
d7f078b8 | 188 | git add <filename> |
031321c6 SE |
189 | |
190 | ||
191 | After resolving the conflict manually and updating the index with the | |
192 | desired resolution, you can continue the rebasing process with | |
193 | ||
194 | ||
195 | git rebase --continue | |
8978d043 | 196 | |
8978d043 | 197 | |
0b444cdb | 198 | Alternatively, you can undo the 'git rebase' with |
8978d043 | 199 | |
031321c6 SE |
200 | |
201 | git rebase --abort | |

208 | OPTIONS |
209 | ------- | |
c2145384 | 210 | --onto <newbase>:: |
69a60af5 CW |
211 | Starting point at which to create the new commits. If the |
212 | --onto option is not specified, the starting point is | |
ea81fcc5 SP |
213 | <upstream>. May be any valid commit, and not just an |
214 | existing branch name. | |
873c3472 | 215 | + |
b9190e79 | 216 | As a special case, you may use "A\...B" as a shortcut for the |
873c3472 MG |
217 | merge base of A and B if there is exactly one merge base. You can |
218 | leave out at most one of A and B, in which case it defaults to HEAD. | |
69a60af5 | 219 | |
414d924b DL |
220 | --keep-base:: |
221 | Set the starting point at which to create the new commits to the | |
222 | merge base of <upstream> <branch>. Running | |
223 | 'git rebase --keep-base <upstream> <branch>' is equivalent to | |
224 | running 'git rebase --onto <upstream>... <upstream>'. | |
225 | + | |
226 | This option is useful in the case where one is developing a feature on | |
227 | top of an upstream branch. While the feature is being worked on, the | |
228 | upstream branch may advance and it may not be the best idea to keep | |
229 | rebasing on top of the upstream but to keep the base commit as-is. | |
230 | + | |
231 | Although both this option and --fork-point find the merge base between | |
232 | <upstream> and <branch>, this option uses the merge base as the _starting | |
233 | point_ on which new commits will be created, whereas --fork-point uses | |
234 | the merge base to determine the _set of commits_ which will be rebased. | |
235 | + | |
236 | See also INCOMPATIBLE OPTIONS below. | |
237 | ||
52a22d1e | 238 | <upstream>:: |
ea81fcc5 | 239 | Upstream branch to compare against. May be any valid commit, |
15a147e6 MZ |
240 | not just an existing branch name. Defaults to the configured |
241 | upstream for the current branch. | |
7fc9d69f | 242 | |
228382ae | 243 | <branch>:: |
52a22d1e | 244 | Working branch; defaults to HEAD. |
7fc9d69f | 245 | |
031321c6 SE |
246 | --continue:: |
247 | Restart the rebasing process after having resolved a merge conflict. | |
248 | ||
249 | --abort:: | |
5960bc9d MZ |
250 | Abort the rebase operation and reset HEAD to the original |
251 | branch. If <branch> was provided when the rebase operation was | |
252 | started, then HEAD will be reset to <branch>. Otherwise HEAD | |
253 | will be reset to where it was when the rebase operation was | |
254 | started. | |
031321c6 | 255 | |
9512177b NTND |
256 | --quit:: |
257 | Abort the rebase operation but HEAD is not reset back to the | |
258 | original branch. The index and working tree are also left | |
259 | unchanged as a result. | |
260 | ||
90e1818f NH |
261 | --keep-empty:: |
262 | Keep the commits that do not change anything from its | |
263 | parents in the result. | |

265 | See also INCOMPATIBLE OPTIONS below. | |
90e1818f | 266 | |
a6c612b5 GS |
267 | --allow-empty-message:: |
268 | By default, rebasing commits with an empty message will fail. | |
269 | This option overrides that behavior, allowing commits with empty | |
270 | messages to be rebased. | |

a6c612b5 | 273 | |

275 | Restart the rebasing process by skipping the current patch. | |

278 | Edit the todo list during an interactive rebase. | |
279 | ||
66335298 NTND |
280 | --show-current-patch:: |
281 | Show the current patch in an interactive rebase or when rebase | |
fbd7a232 NTND |
282 | is stopped because of conflicts. This is the equivalent of |
283 | `git show REBASE_HEAD`. | |
66335298 | 284 | |
3240240f SB |
285 | -m:: |
286 | --merge:: | |
58634dbf EW |
287 | Use merging strategies to rebase. When the recursive (default) merge |
288 | strategy is used, this allows rebase to be aware of renames on the | |
289 | upstream side. | |
31ddd1ee TR |
290 | + |
291 | Note that a rebase merge works by replaying each commit from the working | |
292 | branch on top of the <upstream> branch. Because of this, when a merge | |
293 | conflict happens, the side reported as 'ours' is the so-far rebased | |
294 | series, starting with <upstream>, and 'theirs' is the working branch. In | |
295 | other words, the sides are swapped. | |

0b444cdb | 302 | If there is no `-s` option 'git merge-recursive' is used |
31ddd1ee TR |
303 | instead. This implies --merge. |
304 | + | |
0b444cdb | 305 | Because 'git rebase' replays each commit from the working branch |
31ddd1ee | 306 | on top of the <upstream> branch using the given strategy, using |
5dacd4ab | 307 | the 'ours' strategy simply empties all patches from the <branch>, |
31ddd1ee | 308 | which makes little sense. |

8f6aed71 JS |
430 | By default, a rebase will simply drop merge commits from the todo |
431 | list, and put the rebased commits into a single, linear branch. | |
432 | With `--rebase-merges`, the rebase will instead try to preserve | |
433 | the branching structure within the commits that are to be rebased, | |
434 | by recreating the merge commits. Any resolved merge conflicts or | |
435 | manual amendments in these merge commits will have to be | |
436 | resolved/re-applied manually. | |
437 | + | |
7543f6f4 JS |
438 | By default, or when `no-rebase-cousins` was specified, commits which do not |
439 | have `<upstream>` as direct ancestor will keep their original branch point, | |
dbf47215 | 440 | i.e. commits that would be excluded by linkgit:git-log[1]'s |
7543f6f4 JS |
441 | `--ancestry-path` option will keep their original ancestry by default. If |
442 | the `rebase-cousins` mode is turned on, such commits are instead rebased | |
443 | onto `<upstream>` (or `<onto>`, if specified). | |
444 | + | |
427c3bd2 JS |
445 | The `--rebase-merges` mode is similar in spirit to the deprecated |
446 | `--preserve-merges`, but in contrast to that option works well in interactive | |
447 | rebases: commits can be reordered, inserted and dropped at will. | |
8f6aed71 JS |
448 | + |
449 | It is currently only possible to recreate the merge commits using the | |
450 | `recursive` merge strategy; Different merge strategies can be used only via | |
451 | explicit `exec git merge -s <strategy> [...]` commands. | |

571 | BEHAVIORAL DIFFERENCES |
572 | ----------------------- | |
573 | ||
6fcbad87 | 574 | There are some subtle differences how the backends behave. |

576 | Empty commits |
577 | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
0661e49a | 578 | |
6fcbad87 JS |
579 | The am backend drops any "empty" commits, regardless of whether the |
580 | commit started empty (had no changes relative to its parent to | |
581 | start with) or ended empty (all changes were already applied | |
582 | upstream in other commits). | |
0661e49a | 583 | |
6fcbad87 JS |
584 | The interactive backend drops commits by default that |
585 | started empty and halts if it hits a commit that ended up empty. | |
586 | The `--keep-empty` option exists for the interactive backend to allow | |
587 | it to keep commits that started empty. | |

598 | NOTES |
599 | ----- | |
90d1c08e | 600 | |
0b444cdb | 601 | You should understand the implications of using 'git rebase' on a |
90d1c08e TR |
602 | repository that you share. See also RECOVERING FROM UPSTREAM REBASE |
603 | below. | |
031321c6 | 604 | |
467c0197 | 605 | When the git-rebase command is run, it will first execute a "pre-rebase" |
031321c6 SE |
606 | hook if one exists. You can use this hook to do sanity checks and |
607 | reject the rebase if it isn't appropriate. Please see the template | |
608 | pre-rebase hook script for an example. | |
609 | ||
702088af | 610 | Upon completion, <branch> will be the current branch. |

1b1dce4b JS |
612 | INTERACTIVE MODE |
613 | ---------------- | |
614 | ||
615 | Rebasing interactively means that you have a chance to edit the commits | |
616 | which are rebased. You can reorder the commits, and you can | |
617 | remove them (weeding out bad or otherwise unwanted patches). | |
618 | ||
619 | The interactive mode is meant for this type of workflow: | |
620 | ||
621 | 1. have a wonderful idea | |
622 | 2. hack on the code | |
623 | 3. prepare a series for submission | |
624 | 4. submit | |
625 | ||
626 | where point 2. consists of several instances of | |
627 | ||
d3f2475c NBL |
628 | a) regular use |
629 | ||
1b1dce4b JS |
630 | 1. finish something worthy of a commit |
631 | 2. commit | |
d3f2475c NBL |
632 | |
633 | b) independent fixup | |
634 | ||
1b1dce4b JS |
635 | 1. realize that something does not work |
636 | 2. fix that | |
637 | 3. commit it | |
638 | ||
639 | Sometimes the thing fixed in b.2. cannot be amended to the not-quite | |
640 | perfect commit it fixes, because that commit is buried deeply in a | |
641 | patch series. That is exactly what interactive rebase is for: use it | |
642 | after plenty of "a"s and "b"s, by rearranging and editing | |
643 | commits, and squashing multiple commits into one. | |
644 | ||
645 | Start it with the last commit you want to retain as-is: | |
646 | ||
647 | git rebase -i <after-this-commit> | |
648 | ||
649 | An editor will be fired up with all the commits in your current branch | |
650 | (ignoring merge commits), which come after the given commit. You can | |
651 | reorder the commits in this list to your heart's content, and you can | |
652 | remove them. The list looks more or less like this: | |
653 | ||
654 | ------------------------------------------- | |
655 | pick deadbee The oneline of this commit | |
656 | pick fa1afe1 The oneline of the next commit | |
657 | ... | |
658 | ------------------------------------------- | |
659 | ||
0b444cdb | 660 | The oneline descriptions are purely for your pleasure; 'git rebase' will |
1b1dce4b JS |
661 | not look at them but at the commit names ("deadbee" and "fa1afe1" in this |
662 | example), so do not delete or edit the names. | |
663 | ||
664 | By replacing the command "pick" with the command "edit", you can tell | |
0b444cdb | 665 | 'git rebase' to stop after applying that commit, so that you can edit |
1b1dce4b JS |
666 | the files and/or the commit message, amend the commit, and continue |
667 | rebasing. | |
668 | ||
71f82465 JS |
669 | To interrupt the rebase (just like an "edit" command would do, but without |
670 | cherry-picking any commit first), use the "break" command. | |
671 | ||
6741aa6c BG |
672 | If you just want to edit the commit message for a commit, replace the |
673 | command "pick" with the command "reword". | |
674 | ||
c9266d58 GR |
675 | To drop a commit, replace the command "pick" with "drop", or just |
676 | delete the matching line. | |
677 | ||
1b1dce4b | 678 | If you want to fold two or more commits into one, replace the command |
0205e72f MH |
679 | "pick" for the second and subsequent commits with "squash" or "fixup". |
680 | If the commits had different authors, the folded commit will be | |
681 | attributed to the author of the first commit. The suggested commit | |
682 | message for the folded commit is the concatenation of the commit | |
683 | messages of the first commit and of those with the "squash" command, | |
684 | but omits the commit messages of commits with the "fixup" command. | |
1b1dce4b | 685 | |
0b444cdb | 686 | 'git rebase' will stop when "pick" has been replaced with "edit" or |
6741aa6c BG |
687 | when a command fails due to merge errors. When you are done editing |
688 | and/or resolving conflicts you can continue with `git rebase --continue`. | |
1b1dce4b JS |
689 | |
690 | For example, if you want to reorder the last 5 commits, such that what | |
691 | was HEAD~4 becomes the new HEAD. To achieve that, you would call | |
0b444cdb | 692 | 'git rebase' like this: |
1b1dce4b JS |
693 | |
694 | ---------------------- | |
695 | $ git rebase -i HEAD~5 | |
696 | ---------------------- | |
697 | ||
698 | And move the first patch to the end of the list. | |
699 | ||
7948b49a JS |
700 | You might want to recreate merge commits, e.g. if you have a history |
701 | like this: | |
f09c9b8c JS |
702 | |
703 | ------------------ | |
704 | X | |
705 | \ | |
706 | A---M---B | |
707 | / | |
708 | ---o---O---P---Q | |
709 | ------------------ | |
710 | ||
711 | Suppose you want to rebase the side branch starting at "A" to "Q". Make | |
712 | sure that the current HEAD is "B", and call | |
713 | ||
714 | ----------------------------- | |
7948b49a | 715 | $ git rebase -i -r --onto Q O |
f09c9b8c JS |
716 | ----------------------------- |
717 | ||
cd035b1c MM |
718 | Reordering and editing commits usually creates untested intermediate |
719 | steps. You may want to check that your history editing did not break | |
720 | anything by running a test, or at least recompiling at intermediate | |
721 | points in history by using the "exec" command (shortcut "x"). You may | |
722 | do so by creating a todo list like this one: | |
723 | ||
724 | ------------------------------------------- | |
725 | pick deadbee Implement feature XXX | |
726 | fixup f1a5c00 Fix to feature XXX | |
727 | exec make | |
728 | pick c0ffeee The oneline of the next commit | |
729 | edit deadbab The oneline of the commit after | |
730 | exec cd subdir; make test | |
731 | ... | |
732 | ------------------------------------------- | |
733 | ||
734 | The interactive rebase will stop when a command fails (i.e. exits with | |
735 | non-0 status) to give you an opportunity to fix the problem. You can | |
736 | continue with `git rebase --continue`. | |
737 | ||
738 | The "exec" command launches the command in a shell (the one specified | |
739 | in `$SHELL`, or the default shell if `$SHELL` is not set), so you can | |
740 | use shell features (like "cd", ">", ";" ...). The command is run from | |
741 | the root of the working tree. | |
f0fd889d | 742 | |
c2145384 LK |
743 | ---------------------------------- |
744 | $ git rebase -i --exec "make test" | |
745 | ---------------------------------- | |
746 | ||
747 | This command lets you check that intermediate commits are compilable. | |
748 | The todo list becomes like that: | |
749 | ||
750 | -------------------- | |
751 | pick 5928aea one | |
752 | exec make test | |
753 | pick 04d0fda two | |
754 | exec make test | |
755 | pick ba46169 three | |
756 | exec make test | |
757 | pick f4593f9 four | |
758 | exec make test | |
759 | -------------------- | |
760 | ||
f0fd889d JS |
761 | SPLITTING COMMITS |
762 | ----------------- | |
763 | ||
764 | In interactive mode, you can mark commits with the action "edit". However, | |
0b444cdb | 765 | this does not necessarily mean that 'git rebase' expects the result of this |
f0fd889d JS |
766 | edit to be exactly one commit. Indeed, you can undo the commit, or you can |
767 | add other commits. This can be used to split a commit into two: | |
768 | ||
483bc4f0 | 769 | - Start an interactive rebase with `git rebase -i <commit>^`, where |
f0fd889d JS |
770 | <commit> is the commit you want to split. In fact, any commit range |
771 | will do, as long as it contains that commit. | |
772 | ||
773 | - Mark the commit you want to split with the action "edit". | |
774 | ||
483bc4f0 | 775 | - When it comes to editing that commit, execute `git reset HEAD^`. The |
f0fd889d JS |
776 | effect is that the HEAD is rewound by one, and the index follows suit. |
777 | However, the working tree stays the same. | |
778 | ||
779 | - Now add the changes to the index that you want to have in the first | |
483bc4f0 | 780 | commit. You can use `git add` (possibly interactively) or |
0b444cdb | 781 | 'git gui' (or both) to do that. |
f0fd889d JS |
782 | |
783 | - Commit the now-current index with whatever commit message is appropriate | |
784 | now. | |
785 | ||
786 | - Repeat the last two steps until your working tree is clean. | |
787 | ||
483bc4f0 | 788 | - Continue the rebase with `git rebase --continue`. |
f0fd889d JS |
789 | |
790 | If you are not absolutely sure that the intermediate revisions are | |
791 | consistent (they compile, pass the testsuite, etc.) you should use | |
0b444cdb | 792 | 'git stash' to stash away the not-yet-committed changes |
f0fd889d JS |
793 | after each commit, test, and amend the commit if fixes are necessary. |

796 | RECOVERING FROM UPSTREAM REBASE |
797 | ------------------------------- | |
798 | ||
799 | Rebasing (or any other form of rewriting) a branch that others have | |
800 | based work on is a bad idea: anyone downstream of it is forced to | |
801 | manually fix their history. This section explains how to do the fix | |
802 | from the downstream's point of view. The real fix, however, would be | |
803 | to avoid rebasing the upstream in the first place. | |
804 | ||
805 | To illustrate, suppose you are in a situation where someone develops a | |
806 | 'subsystem' branch, and you are working on a 'topic' that is dependent | |
807 | on this 'subsystem'. You might end up with a history like the | |
808 | following: | |
809 | ||
810 | ------------ | |
01826066 | 811 | o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o master |
90d1c08e TR |
812 | \ |
813 | o---o---o---o---o subsystem | |
814 | \ | |
815 | *---*---* topic | |
816 | ------------ | |
817 | ||
818 | If 'subsystem' is rebased against 'master', the following happens: | |
819 | ||
820 | ------------ | |
821 | o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o master | |
822 | \ \ | |

826 | ------------ | |
827 | ||
828 | If you now continue development as usual, and eventually merge 'topic' | |
829 | to 'subsystem', the commits from 'subsystem' will remain duplicated forever: | |
830 | ||
831 | ------------ | |
832 | o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o master | |
833 | \ \ | |
834 | o---o---o---o---o o'--o'--o'--o'--o'--M subsystem | |
835 | \ / | |
836 | *---*---*-..........-*--* topic | |
837 | ------------ | |
838 | ||
839 | Such duplicates are generally frowned upon because they clutter up | |
840 | history, making it harder to follow. To clean things up, you need to | |
841 | transplant the commits on 'topic' to the new 'subsystem' tip, i.e., | |
842 | rebase 'topic'. This becomes a ripple effect: anyone downstream from | |
843 | 'topic' is forced to rebase too, and so on! | |
844 | ||
845 | There are two kinds of fixes, discussed in the following subsections: | |
846 | ||
847 | Easy case: The changes are literally the same.:: | |
848 | ||
849 | This happens if the 'subsystem' rebase was a simple rebase and | |
850 | had no conflicts. | |
851 | ||
852 | Hard case: The changes are not the same.:: | |
853 | ||
854 | This happens if the 'subsystem' rebase had conflicts, or used | |
6cf378f0 JK |
855 | `--interactive` to omit, edit, squash, or fixup commits; or |
856 | if the upstream used one of `commit --amend`, `reset`, or | |
9df53c5d EN |
857 | a full history rewriting command like |
858 | https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo[`filter-repo`]. | |
90d1c08e TR |
859 | |
860 | ||
861 | The easy case | |
862 | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
863 | ||
864 | Only works if the changes (patch IDs based on the diff contents) on | |
865 | 'subsystem' are literally the same before and after the rebase | |
866 | 'subsystem' did. | |
867 | ||
0b444cdb | 868 | In that case, the fix is easy because 'git rebase' knows to skip |
90d1c08e TR |
869 | changes that are already present in the new upstream. So if you say |
870 | (assuming you're on 'topic') | |
871 | ------------ | |
872 | $ git rebase subsystem | |
873 | ------------ | |
874 | you will end up with the fixed history | |

881 | ------------ | |
882 | ||
883 | ||
884 | The hard case | |
885 | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
886 | ||
887 | Things get more complicated if the 'subsystem' changes do not exactly | |
888 | correspond to the ones before the rebase. | |
889 | ||
890 | NOTE: While an "easy case recovery" sometimes appears to be successful | |
891 | even in the hard case, it may have unintended consequences. For | |
892 | example, a commit that was removed via `git rebase | |
6cf378f0 | 893 | --interactive` will be **resurrected**! |
90d1c08e | 894 | |
0b444cdb | 895 | The idea is to manually tell 'git rebase' "where the old 'subsystem' |
414d924b | 896 | ended and your 'topic' began", that is, what the old merge base |
90d1c08e TR |
897 | between them was. You will have to find a way to name the last commit |
898 | of the old 'subsystem', for example: | |
899 | ||
0b444cdb | 900 | * With the 'subsystem' reflog: after 'git fetch', the old tip of |
6cf378f0 | 901 | 'subsystem' is at `subsystem@{1}`. Subsequent fetches will |
90d1c08e TR |
902 | increase the number. (See linkgit:git-reflog[1].) |
903 | ||
904 | * Relative to the tip of 'topic': knowing that your 'topic' has three | |
905 | commits, the old tip of 'subsystem' must be `topic~3`. | |
906 | ||
907 | You can then transplant the old `subsystem..topic` to the new tip by | |
908 | saying (for the reflog case, and assuming you are on 'topic' already): | |
909 | ------------ | |
910 | $ git rebase --onto subsystem subsystem@{1} | |
911 | ------------ | |
912 | ||
913 | The ripple effect of a "hard case" recovery is especially bad: | |
914 | 'everyone' downstream from 'topic' will now have to perform a "hard | |
915 | case" recovery too! | |
916 | ||
25cff9f1 | 917 | REBASING MERGES |
81d395cc | 918 | --------------- |
25cff9f1 JS |
919 | |
920 | The interactive rebase command was originally designed to handle | |
921 | individual patch series. As such, it makes sense to exclude merge | |
922 | commits from the todo list, as the developer may have merged the | |
923 | then-current `master` while working on the branch, only to rebase | |
924 | all the commits onto `master` eventually (skipping the merge | |
925 | commits). | |
926 | ||
927 | However, there are legitimate reasons why a developer may want to | |
928 | recreate merge commits: to keep the branch structure (or "commit | |
929 | topology") when working on multiple, inter-related branches. | |
930 | ||
931 | In the following example, the developer works on a topic branch that | |
932 | refactors the way buttons are defined, and on another topic branch | |
933 | that uses that refactoring to implement a "Report a bug" button. The | |
934 | output of `git log --graph --format=%s -5` may look like this: | |
935 | ||
936 | ------------ | |
937 | * Merge branch 'report-a-bug' | |
938 | |\ | |
939 | | * Add the feedback button | |
940 | * | Merge branch 'refactor-button' | |
941 | |\ \ | |
942 | | |/ | |
943 | | * Use the Button class for all buttons | |
944 | | * Extract a generic Button class from the DownloadButton one | |
945 | ------------ | |
946 | ||
947 | The developer might want to rebase those commits to a newer `master` | |
948 | while keeping the branch topology, for example when the first topic | |
949 | branch is expected to be integrated into `master` much earlier than the | |
950 | second one, say, to resolve merge conflicts with changes to the | |
951 | DownloadButton class that made it into `master`. | |
952 | ||
953 | This rebase can be performed using the `--rebase-merges` option. | |
954 | It will generate a todo list looking like this: | |
955 | ||
956 | ------------ | |
957 | label onto | |
958 | ||
959 | # Branch: refactor-button | |
960 | reset onto | |
961 | pick 123456 Extract a generic Button class from the DownloadButton one | |
962 | pick 654321 Use the Button class for all buttons | |
963 | label refactor-button | |
964 | ||
965 | # Branch: report-a-bug | |
966 | reset refactor-button # Use the Button class for all buttons | |
967 | pick abcdef Add the feedback button | |
968 | label report-a-bug | |
969 | ||
970 | reset onto | |
971 | merge -C a1b2c3 refactor-button # Merge 'refactor-button' | |
972 | merge -C 6f5e4d report-a-bug # Merge 'report-a-bug' | |
973 | ------------ | |
974 | ||
975 | In contrast to a regular interactive rebase, there are `label`, `reset` | |
976 | and `merge` commands in addition to `pick` ones. | |
977 | ||
978 | The `label` command associates a label with the current HEAD when that | |
979 | command is executed. These labels are created as worktree-local refs | |
980 | (`refs/rewritten/<label>`) that will be deleted when the rebase | |
981 | finishes. That way, rebase operations in multiple worktrees linked to | |
982 | the same repository do not interfere with one another. If the `label` | |
983 | command fails, it is rescheduled immediately, with a helpful message how | |
984 | to proceed. | |
985 | ||
986 | The `reset` command resets the HEAD, index and worktree to the specified | |
ad0b8f95 | 987 | revision. It is similar to an `exec git reset --hard <label>`, but |
25cff9f1 JS |
988 | refuses to overwrite untracked files. If the `reset` command fails, it is |
989 | rescheduled immediately, with a helpful message how to edit the todo list | |
990 | (this typically happens when a `reset` command was inserted into the todo | |
991 | list manually and contains a typo). | |
992 | ||
caafecfc JS |
993 | The `merge` command will merge the specified revision(s) into whatever |
994 | is HEAD at that time. With `-C <original-commit>`, the commit message of | |
25cff9f1 JS |
995 | the specified merge commit will be used. When the `-C` is changed to |
996 | a lower-case `-c`, the message will be opened in an editor after a | |
997 | successful merge so that the user can edit the message. | |
998 | ||
999 | If a `merge` command fails for any reason other than merge conflicts (i.e. | |
1000 | when the merge operation did not even start), it is rescheduled immediately. | |
1001 | ||
1002 | At this time, the `merge` command will *always* use the `recursive` | |
caafecfc | 1003 | merge strategy for regular merges, and `octopus` for octopus merges, |
57e9dcaa | 1004 | with no way to choose a different one. To work around |
25cff9f1 JS |
1005 | this, an `exec` command can be used to call `git merge` explicitly, |
1006 | using the fact that the labels are worktree-local refs (the ref | |
1007 | `refs/rewritten/onto` would correspond to the label `onto`, for example). | |
1008 | ||
1009 | Note: the first command (`label onto`) labels the revision onto which | |
1010 | the commits are rebased; The name `onto` is just a convention, as a nod | |
1011 | to the `--onto` option. | |
1012 | ||
1013 | It is also possible to introduce completely new merge commits from scratch | |
1014 | by adding a command of the form `merge <merge-head>`. This form will | |
1015 | generate a tentative commit message and always open an editor to let the | |
1016 | user edit it. This can be useful e.g. when a topic branch turns out to | |
1017 | address more than a single concern and wants to be split into two or | |
1018 | even more topic branches. Consider this todo list: | |
1019 | ||
1020 | ------------ | |
1021 | pick 192837 Switch from GNU Makefiles to CMake | |
1022 | pick 5a6c7e Document the switch to CMake | |
1023 | pick 918273 Fix detection of OpenSSL in CMake | |
1024 | pick afbecd http: add support for TLS v1.3 | |
1025 | pick fdbaec Fix detection of cURL in CMake on Windows | |
1026 | ------------ | |
1027 | ||
1028 | The one commit in this list that is not related to CMake may very well | |
1029 | have been motivated by working on fixing all those bugs introduced by | |
1030 | switching to CMake, but it addresses a different concern. To split this | |
1031 | branch into two topic branches, the todo list could be edited like this: | |
1032 | ||
1033 | ------------ | |
1034 | label onto | |
1035 | ||
1036 | pick afbecd http: add support for TLS v1.3 | |
1037 | label tlsv1.3 | |
1038 | ||
1039 | reset onto | |
1040 | pick 192837 Switch from GNU Makefiles to CMake | |
1041 | pick 918273 Fix detection of OpenSSL in CMake | |
1042 | pick fdbaec Fix detection of cURL in CMake on Windows | |
1043 | pick 5a6c7e Document the switch to CMake | |
1044 | label cmake | |
1045 | ||
1046 | reset onto | |
1047 | merge tlsv1.3 | |
1048 | merge cmake | |
1049 | ------------ | |

1053 | The todo list presented by the deprecated `--preserve-merges --interactive` |
1054 | does not represent the topology of the revision graph (use `--rebase-merges` | |
1055 | instead). Editing commits and rewording their commit messages should work | |
1056 | fine, but attempts to reorder commits tend to produce counterintuitive results. | |
1057 | Use `--rebase-merges` in such scenarios instead. | |
