Well, I didn't get around to it as early as I'd hoped, but I did do a trial run of the rebase. It didn't take much time, and there were only a handful patches with conflicts, most of which were easily resolved. I skipped one huge patch from MacVim that imported new runtime files, and ran a diff of runtime/ between vim_extended/vim and vim_extended/macvim and noted that the only changes were MacVim related, so I think that turned out okay. I've pushed the resulting branch into a fork of vim_extended at http://repo.or.cz/w/MacVim_ext.git/ If anyone is interested please have a look. I don't expect this to be the final result, as there is no doubt something I did wrong or could do better. One thing that I do not like is that the commit times for all the MacVim commits show as when I performed the rebase. They also show me as the committer (though they retain the correct author name/date). There is probably some other stuff that can be done better, and I'm more than happy to run through the process again to get the details correct. I made sure that MacVim still built for me, and I did try merging in a couple patch branches. It seems to work okay so far. Anyway, this result is encouraging, and I'm eager to hear what everyone thinks should be done from here.
