I totally missed that this patch made it into next, and then master. Sorry
about that.

     -    When contributing the patch series, the cover letter tried to convey
     -    clearly that the patch introducing the shortcut -y was included only to
     -    show that it is possible, with a slight bias against it.
     +    This patch was contributed only as a tentative "we could introduce a
     +    convenient short option if we do not want to change the default behavior
     +    in the long run" patch, opening the discussion whether other people
     +    agree with deprecating the current behavior in favor of the rescheduling
     +    behavior.
      
     -    During the review, there were a couple reviewers who agreed with this
     -    sentiment, and the author was happy that this patch was not needed and
     -    concurred that it should be dropped. See e.g. Stefan Beller's reply:
     +    But the consensus on the Git mailing list was that it would make sense
     +    to show a warning in the near future, and flip the default
     +    rebase.rescheduleFailedExec to reschedule failed `exec` commands by
     +    default. See e.g.
          <CAGZ79kZL5CRqCDRb6B-EedUm8Z_i4JuSF2=[email-masked]>
      
     -    However, it slipped by the original patch author (yours truly) that the
     -    patch *was* included when the branch made it to `next` and then when it
     -    made it to `master`.
     -
     -    So let's back out that patch before it even slips into an official
     -    release (in which case we would even have to support this unwanted
     -    flag).
     +    So let's back out that patch that added the `-y` short option that we
     +    agreed was not necessary or desirable.
      
          This reverts commit 81ef8ee75d5f348d3c71ff633d13d302124e1a5e.
