Git rebase

Use case

One of the best ways to incorporate rebasing into your workflow is to clean up local, in-progress features.

$ git rebase -i HEAD~3

In case of conflicts

Relax and do not panic.

masa@Masas-Mac:~/blog (master)
$ git rebase -i HEAD~10
error: could not apply f8a87e6... Add layout to timeline in the About page

When you have resolved this problem, run "git rebase --continue".
If you prefer to skip this patch, run "git rebase --skip" instead.
To check out the original branch and stop rebasing, run "git rebase --abort".

Undoing git rebase

# Find the head commit of the branch:
$ git reflog
# Suppose the old commit was HEAD@{5} in the ref log:
git reset --hard HEAD@{5}
