</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_description">DESCRIPTION</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>If &lt;branch&gt; is specified, <em>git rebase</em> will perform an automatic
<code>git checkout &lt;branch&gt;</code> before doing anything else.  Otherwise
it remains on the current branch.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>If &lt;upstream&gt; is not specified, the upstream configured in
branch.&lt;name&gt;.remote and branch.&lt;name&gt;.merge options will be used; see
<a href="git-config.html">git-config(1)</a> for details.  If you are currently not on any
branch or if the current branch does not have a configured upstream,
the rebase will abort.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>All changes made by commits in the current branch but that are not
in &lt;upstream&gt; are saved to a temporary area.  This is the same set
of commits that would be shown by <code>git log &lt;upstream&gt;..HEAD</code> (or
<code>git log HEAD</code>, if --root is specified).</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The current branch is reset to &lt;upstream&gt;, or &lt;newbase&gt; if the
--onto option was supplied.  This has the exact same effect as
<code>git reset --hard &lt;upstream&gt;</code> (or &lt;newbase&gt;).  ORIG_HEAD is set
to point at the tip of the branch before the reset.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The commits that were previously saved into the temporary area are
then reapplied to the current branch, one by one, in order. Note that
any commits in HEAD which introduce the same textual changes as a commit
in HEAD..&lt;upstream&gt; are omitted (i.e., a patch already accepted upstream
with a different commit message or timestamp will be skipped).</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>It is possible that a merge failure will prevent this process from being
completely automatic.  You will have to resolve any such merge failure
and run <code>git rebase --continue</code>.  Another option is to bypass the commit
that caused the merge failure with <code>git rebase --skip</code>.  To check out the
original &lt;branch&gt; and remove the .git/rebase-apply working files, use the
command <code>git rebase --abort</code> instead.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Assume the following history exists and the current branch is "topic":</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>          A---B---C topic
         /
    D---E---F---G master</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>From this point, the result of either of the following commands:</p></div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>git rebase master
git rebase master topic</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>would be:</p></div>

        the strategy makes a guess on how two trees must be shifted to
        match with each other when merging.  Instead, the specified path
        is prefixed (or stripped from the beginning) to make the shape of
        two trees to match.

        This resolves cases with more than two heads, but refuses to do
        a complex merge that needs manual resolution.  It is
        primarily meant to be used for bundling topic branch
        heads together.  This is the default merge strategy when
        pulling or merging more than one branch.

<p>
        This resolves any number of heads, but the resulting tree of the
        merge is always that of the current branch head, effectively
        ignoring all changes from all other branches.  It is meant to
        be used to supersede old development history of side
        branches.  Note that this is different from the -Xours option to
        the <em>recursive</em> merge strategy.

<p>
        This is a modified recursive strategy. When merging trees A and
        B, if B corresponds to a subtree of A, B is first adjusted to
        match the tree structure of A, instead of reading the trees at
        the same level. This adjustment is also done to the common
        ancestor tree.

<div class="paragraph"><p>Rebasing interactively means that you have a chance to edit the commits
which are rebased.  You can reorder the commits, and you can
remove them (weeding out bad or otherwise unwanted patches).</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The interactive mode is meant for this type of workflow:</p></div>

</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
fix that
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
commit it
</p>
</li>
</ol></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Sometimes the thing fixed in b.2. cannot be amended to the not-quite
perfect commit it fixes, because that commit is buried deeply in a
patch series.  That is exactly what interactive rebase is for: use it
after plenty of "a"s and "b"s, by rearranging and editing
commits, and squashing multiple commits into one.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Start it with the last commit you want to retain as-is:</p></div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>git rebase -i &lt;after-this-commit&gt;</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>An editor will be fired up with all the commits in your current branch
(ignoring merge commits), which come after the given commit.  You can
reorder the commits in this list to your heart&#8217;s content, and you can
remove them.  The list looks more or less like this:</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>pick deadbee The oneline of this commit
pick fa1afe1 The oneline of the next commit
...</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The oneline descriptions are purely for your pleasure; <em>git rebase</em> will
not look at them but at the commit names ("deadbee" and "fa1afe1" in this
example), so do not delete or edit the names.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>By replacing the command "pick" with the command "edit", you can tell
<em>git rebase</em> to stop after applying that commit, so that you can edit
the files and/or the commit message, amend the commit, and continue
rebasing.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>If you just want to edit the commit message for a commit, replace the
command "pick" with the command "reword".</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>If you want to fold two or more commits into one, replace the command
"pick" for the second and subsequent commits with "squash" or "fixup".
If the commits had different authors, the folded commit will be
attributed to the author of the first commit.  The suggested commit
message for the folded commit is the concatenation of the commit
messages of the first commit and of those with the "squash" command,
but omits the commit messages of commits with the "fixup" command.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p><em>git rebase</em> 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 <code>git rebase --continue</code>.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>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
<em>git rebase</em> like this:</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>$ git rebase -i HEAD~5</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>And move the first patch to the end of the list.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>You might want to preserve merges, if you have a history like this:</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>           X
            \
         A---M---B
        /
---o---O---P---Q</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Suppose you want to rebase the side branch starting at "A" to "Q". Make
sure that the current HEAD is "B", and call</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>$ git rebase -i -p --onto Q O</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Reordering and editing commits usually creates untested intermediate
steps.  You may want to check that your history editing did not break
anything by running a test, or at least recompiling at intermediate
points in history by using the "exec" command (shortcut "x").  You may
do so by creating a todo list like this one:</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>pick deadbee Implement feature XXX
fixup f1a5c00 Fix to feature XXX
exec make
pick c0ffeee The oneline of the next commit
edit deadbab The oneline of the commit after
exec cd subdir; make test
...</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The interactive rebase will stop when a command fails (i.e. exits with
non-0 status) to give you an opportunity to fix the problem. You can
continue with <code>git rebase --continue</code>.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The "exec" command launches the command in a shell (the one specified
in <code>$SHELL</code>, or the default shell if <code>$SHELL</code> is not set), so you can
use shell features (like "cd", "&gt;", ";" &#8230;). The command is run from
the root of the working tree.</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>$ git rebase -i --exec "make test"</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>This command lets you check that intermediate commits are compilable.
The todo list becomes like that:</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>pick 5928aea one
exec make test
pick 04d0fda two
exec make test
pick ba46169 three

pick f4593f9 four
exec make test</code></pre>
</div></div>

<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_splitting_commits">SPLITTING COMMITS</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>In interactive mode, you can mark commits with the action "edit".  However,
this does not necessarily mean that <em>git rebase</em> expects the result of this
edit to be exactly one commit.  Indeed, you can undo the commit, or you can
add other commits.  This can be used to split a commit into two:</p></div>
<div class="ulist"><ul>
<li>
<p>
Start an interactive rebase with <code>git rebase -i &lt;commit&gt;^</code>, where
  &lt;commit&gt; is the commit you want to split.  In fact, any commit range
  will do, as long as it contains that commit.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Mark the commit you want to split with the action "edit".
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
When it comes to editing that commit, execute <code>git reset HEAD^</code>.  The
  effect is that the HEAD is rewound by one, and the index follows suit.
  However, the working tree stays the same.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Now add the changes to the index that you want to have in the first
  commit.  You can use <code>git add</code> (possibly interactively) or
  <em>git gui</em> (or both) to do that.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Commit the now-current index with whatever commit message is appropriate
  now.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Repeat the last two steps until your working tree is clean.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Continue the rebase with <code>git rebase --continue</code>.
</p>
</li>
</ul></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>If you are not absolutely sure that the intermediate revisions are
consistent (they compile, pass the testsuite, etc.) you should use
<em>git stash</em> to stash away the not-yet-committed changes
after each commit, test, and amend the commit if fixes are necessary.</p></div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_recovering_from_upstream_rebase">RECOVERING FROM UPSTREAM REBASE</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>Rebasing (or any other form of rewriting) a branch that others have
based work on is a bad idea: anyone downstream of it is forced to
manually fix their history.  This section explains how to do the fix
from the downstream&#8217;s point of view.  The real fix, however, would be
to avoid rebasing the upstream in the first place.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>To illustrate, suppose you are in a situation where someone develops a
<em>subsystem</em> branch, and you are working on a <em>topic</em> that is dependent
on this <em>subsystem</em>.  You might end up with a history like the
following:</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>    o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o  master
         \
          o---o---o---o---o  subsystem
                           \
                            *---*---*  topic</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>If <em>subsystem</em> is rebased against <em>master</em>, the following happens:</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>    o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o  master
         \                       \
          o---o---o---o---o       o'--o'--o'--o'--o'  subsystem
                           \
                            *---*---*  topic</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>If you now continue development as usual, and eventually merge <em>topic</em>
to <em>subsystem</em>, the commits from <em>subsystem</em> will remain duplicated forever:</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>    o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o  master

                            *---*---*-..........-*--*  topic</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Such duplicates are generally frowned upon because they clutter up
history, making it harder to follow.  To clean things up, you need to
transplant the commits on <em>topic</em> to the new <em>subsystem</em> tip, i.e.,
rebase <em>topic</em>.  This becomes a ripple effect: anyone downstream from
<em>topic</em> is forced to rebase too, and so on!</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>There are two kinds of fixes, discussed in the following subsections:</p></div>
<div class="dlist"><dl>
<dt class="hdlist1">
Easy case: The changes are literally the same.
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        This happens if the <em>subsystem</em> rebase was a simple rebase and
        had no conflicts.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
Hard case: The changes are not the same.
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        This happens if the <em>subsystem</em> rebase had conflicts, or used
        <code>--interactive</code> to omit, edit, squash, or fixup commits; or
        if the upstream used one of <code>commit --amend</code>, <code>reset</code>, or
        <code>filter-branch</code>.

<h3 id="_the_easy_case">The easy case</h3>

<div class="ulist"><ul>
<li>
<p>
With the <em>subsystem</em> reflog: after <em>git fetch</em>, the old tip of
  <em>subsystem</em> is at <code>subsystem@{1}</code>.  Subsequent fetches will
  increase the number.  (See <a href="git-reflog.html">git-reflog(1)</a>.)
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Relative to the tip of <em>topic</em>: knowing that your <em>topic</em> has three
  commits, the old tip of <em>subsystem</em> must be <code>topic~3</code>.
</p>

</ul></div>
