for some reason it's easier than normal rebasing though

[–] yogo@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Have you tried interactive rebase (rebase -i)? I find it very useful

[–] Blamemeta@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yeah, but then you deal with merge conflicts

[–] dukk@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

You can get merge conflicts in cherry picks too, it’s the same process.

rerere is a lifesaver here.

(I'm also a fan of rebasing; but I also like to land commits that perform a logical and separable chunk of work, because I like history to have decent narrative flow.)
