Looks you're trying to rebase onto an origin branch which were not updated since you forked your feature branch off it, so there's no need for rebasing. > My work flow is like i clone a project from git and start working on > its branch. > > 1.

You chose bad wording to it's not exactly clear what you really want to achieve. Do you want to prettify your development history (so that the *changes* commits 2 through 4 introduce are kept but there are no records of these separate commits in the history) or do you want to completely evaporate the changes they introduce and just transfer the changes made by the commits 1 and 5 from your development branch to some other branch? Or do you want to rebase your development branch onto some other branch (its origin branch may be) but keep only commits 1 and 5 as the result of rebasing? If yes, should the changes made by commits 2-4 be kept or not? Please be way more specific. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
