Identify rebase · Issue #64 · git-commit-notifier/git-commit-notifier · GitHub

It would be nice if the notifier could identify rebase and notify you in such case.

How are you want to view it?

I'd love an email, saying that the branch was rebased.

Imagine the following history:

                     A---B---C topic
                    /
               D---E---F---G master

which gets rebased to

                             A'--B'--C' topic
                            /
               D---E---F---G master

Assuming both master and the topic branch were pushed to my centralized repo, I have the following emails in my archives:

[project] D
[project] E
[project/topic] A
[project/topic] B
[project/topic] C
[project] F
[project] G

Now when the new topic ref is force-pushed, I'll get

[project/topic] A'
[project/topic] B'
[project/topic] C'

I'd like to see one extra email to mark the rebase point

[project/topic] rebased 3 commits: E..C
[project/topic] A'
[project/topic] B'
[project/topic] C'

The body of that email is not very important. I imagine it might mention the old ref (C), the old base (E), the new ref (C') and the new base (G).
