I have trouble getting a clean PR together. Here is what I tried

I started with my branch
https://github.com/akinom/DSpace/commits/DS-1905-checker-emailer
which is based on 1.8_x - sighh we are way behind

git checkout DS-1905-checker-emailer <https://github.com/akinom/DSpace/commits/DS-1905-checker-emailer>
git rebase -s recursive -X theirs upstream/master

I interpret that the --theirs option favors the changes from upstream

This produces lots of conflicts of the 'deleted in upstream - left file on file system'. For some reason rebase gets all upset about pom.xml files and not about all the other files that moved.

I did
    rm offender-file
    git rm offender-file
whenever that happened

A couple cases there were complaints that a file was 'modified by both'

so I tried with
   git revert HEAD  -- offender-file
   git checkout --theirs -- offender-file

and whenever conflicts went away I did   rebase --continue


I ended up with something that shows files differing that should really not be part of this.

Before I go ahead and try to cherry-pick - is there some git feature I should know/try ?
