Bug ID: 5422
Summary: rebase shows "nothing to rebase" even in cases where
the rebaseset can be partially rebased
Product: Mercurial
Version: default branch
Hardware: PC
OS: Windows
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: feature
Priority: wish
Component: rebase
Assignee: bugzi...@selenic.com
Reporter: arcppzju+hg...@gmail.com
CC: mercurial-de...@selenic.com
Given the following DAG:
o f
|
o e
|
| o d
|/
o c
|
| o b
|/
o a
`hg rebase -s 'b+d+f' -d e` fails with:
nothing to rebase
The error message is not accurate because both b and d are valid sources to be
rebased. With "--debug" the reason is shown:
$ hg rebase -s 'b+d+f' -d e --debug
rebase onto cd22cb85be7c starting from 27056920676d
rebase onto cd22cb85be7c starting from 7fde43e95481
source is a child of destination
nothing to rebase
However, we should probably improve the error message so it's more informative
than just "nothing to rebase".
