It’s been hashed over here on the mailing list many times before. Just search the archives for “git rebase”. The short argument I prefer to use is that a version control system should behave like an accounting system, recording what happened, as it happened. Git rebase is like keeping your company’s ledger on a whiteboard. In an accounting system, if you make a mistake, you don’t erase the line and write in the correction. You make *another* entry correcting the error, just like you do when you check in an error using Fossil. Have read some post here about Git rebase, but never your analogy with accounting. Good one. Thanks. > A commit pre-hook running an automatic indenting would have solved this problem. While I have strong ideas of how source code should be formatted and I can *mostly* write BSD or GNU indent(1) rules to codify that standard, I can’t quite get either of them to result in exactly my preferred coding style. The tools always wreck something, requiring that I go back in and fix it up manually. Coding style is a social norm. It should be enforced by social means, not technical means. Must disagree here, at least when we are talker about bigger communities, where some kind of technical control/help is necessary to create some kind of "community standard". Coding style apart, let's mention another, more simple example for the need of pre-hooks: syntax control for the commit message. Anyone is using TH1 hooks with Fossil to check message syntax? Would appreciate configuration tips.
