git rebase --abort
+CONFIGURATION
+-------------
+
+rebase.stat::
+ Whether to show a diffstat of what changed upstream since the last
+ rebase. False by default.
+
OPTIONS
-------
<newbase>::
-s <strategy>::
--strategy=<strategy>::
- Use the given merge strategy; can be supplied more than
- once to specify them in the order they should be tried.
+ Use the given merge strategy.
If there is no `-s` option, a built-in list of strategies
is used instead ('git-merge-recursive' when merging a single
head, 'git-merge-octopus' otherwise). This implies --merge.
+-q::
+--quiet::
+ Be quiet. Implies --no-stat.
+
-v::
--verbose::
- Display a diffstat of what changed upstream since the last rebase.
+ Be verbose. Implies --stat.
+
+--stat::
+ Show a diffstat of what changed upstream since the last rebase. The
+ diffstat is also controlled by the configuration option rebase.stat.
+
+-n::
+--no-stat::
+ Do not show a diffstat as part of the rebase process.
--no-verify::
This option bypasses the pre-rebase hook. See also linkgit:githooks[5].
context exist they all must match. By default no context is
ever ignored.
+-f::
+--force-rebase::
+ Force the rebase even if the current branch is a descendant
+ of the commit you are rebasing onto. Normally the command will
+ exit with the message "Current branch is up to date" in such a
+ situation.
+
+--ignore-whitespace::
--whitespace=<option>::
- This flag is passed to the 'git-apply' program
+ These flag are passed to the 'git-apply' program
(see linkgit:git-apply[1]) that applies the patch.
Incompatible with the --interactive option.
+--committer-date-is-author-date::
+--ignore-date::
+ These flags are passed to 'git-am' to easily change the dates
+ of the rebased commits (see linkgit:git-am[1]).
+
-i::
--interactive::
Make a list of the commits which are about to be rebased. Let the
the files and/or the commit message, amend the commit, and continue
rebasing.
+If you just want to edit the commit message for a commit, replace the
+command "pick" with the command "reword".
+
If you want to fold two or more commits into one, replace the command
"pick" with "squash" for the second and subsequent commit. If the
commits had different authors, it will attribute the squashed commit to
the author of the first commit.
-In both cases, or when a "pick" does not succeed (because of merge
-errors), the loop will stop to let you fix things, and you can continue
-the loop with `git rebase --continue`.
+'git-rebase' will stop when "pick" has been replaced with "edit" or
+when a command fails due to merge errors. When you are done editing
+and/or resolving conflicts you can continue with `git rebase --continue`.
For example, if you want to reorder the last 5 commits, such that what
was HEAD~4 becomes the new HEAD. To achieve that, you would call
