Subject: [git-svn PATCH] Add --no-rebase option to git-svn dcommit

From: Karl Hasselström <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 03 May 2007 07:51:35 +0200

git-svn dcommit exports commits to Subversion, then imports them back
to git again, and last but not least rebases or resets HEAD to the
last of the new commits. I guess this rebasing is convenient when
using just git, but when the commits to be exported are managed by
StGIT, it's really annoying. So add an option to disable this
behavior. And document it, too!

Arguably, the switch should be --rebase instead, and default to not
rebase. But that would change the existing behavior, and possibly make
dcommit less convenient to use for at least the person who implemented
the existing behavior. Opinions?
