Rebase private history moving bunch of changes where they logically belong to
Quite often, I make a bunch of commits and review the files later, but before pushing them. This usually leads to a bunch of minor changes like reduced visibility, improved naming, etc. Such changes usually can and should be included into the last commit changing the corresponding file, assuming this commit haven't yet been pushed.
I wonder, if there's an easy way to automate this process, i.e.,
- for each dirty file, find the last commit modifying it
- if this commit lies in a range (e.g.,
master..origin/master
) - then amend this commit with this change
git rebase

Sounds like recently promotedhg absorb
. Quick googling shows there is at least one git port, but I have not tried it

@max630 My idea was actually simpler, buthg absorb
sounds much smarter. I haven't tried thegit
port yet either, but I will when I get some spare time.
