Description : auto fixup a stack of git commits
It's a tool that, when run on a git feature branch with a stack of pending
git commits and some uncommitted fixes, automatically finds a relevant
commit (above a given base, such as master) where the given hunk should be
applied to. There's an interactive mode where you get to review the
assignment of fixups or fully automated YOLO ("git reflog" is ------> over
there).
This functionality is something I wish for approximately once per day --
alas, this implementation is written in some ugly heathen language I neither
speak nor understand insanities of packaging of. Thus, if I could get a
Rust user to do the dirty work...
No, I haven't actually tried if git-absorb is as good as it's advertised.
