For sure on my end the most useful git commands are: * git rebase -i, which I use to rework series of patches. No need for quilt, stgit, topgit or who knows what. git rebase -i is really a very powerful way to organize and rework a set of patches, going through multiple iterations. * git add -p, which allows to selectively stage parts of a file changes for the next commit.
