No. We're discussing small patches, every one of them a single commit, all of them unrelated. Once I push the changes, the past is irrelevant. My using a private branch and rebase would be utterly indistinguishable of my having developed and committed each one on the trunk/ (as some are suggesting for such quickfixes). rebase is a tool to keep private history private, and public history clean. Nothing more, nothing less. Juanma
