Yeah, many people use the interactive rebase a lot so I think it could be very interesting. > It's available here: > https://github.com/nmorey/git-sequencer-status > SUSE and Fedora packages are available here: > https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:NMoreyChaisemartin:git-tools/git-sequencer-status > > It's not necessary very robust yet.

I wonder if people might want more about the current step (but maybe that belongs to `git status`) or perhaps the not yet performed states (and maybe even a way to edit the todo list?) > Two questions: > - Could this be a candidate for contrib/ ?

Yeah, it's probably better if it's integrated in git, either as a --status option in some commands, or perhaps as an option of `git status`. Thanks, Christian.
