Subject: rebase -i: fix for optional [branch] parameter
X-Git-Tag: v1.5.3-rc4~11
X-Git-Url: https://git.tokkee.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c9e6589288b09f4e631c7f12f0f9a77c29851632;p=git.git

rebase -i: fix for optional [branch] parameter

When calling "git rebase -i <upstream> <branch>", git should switch
to <branch> first.  This worked before, but I broke it by my
"Shut git rebase -i up" patch.

Fix that, and add a test to make sure that it does not break again.
