Well, there is 2 issues, I guess.  One is fixed by allow downgrade.

The other one is not about '--allow-downgrades' but simply about pull
from a removed commit (rebase).  I do not think it could be considered
as a bug but the behaviour has changed and '--allow-downgrades' is not
enough.  Well, if I understand correctly what you described before in
this thread. :-)

IMHO, the trick to be able to pull from a removed commit is to switch
generation first.  The price to pay is that history will be lost and
so news will be screwed up.

Well, for sure describe your workflow could be an entry of the Cookbook. :-)


All the best,
simon
