+ * "git branch --edit-description" can exit with status -1 which is

+ * Fix some bugs in the reflog messages when rebasing and changes the

+
+ * "git rebase --keep-base" used to discard the commits that are
+   already cherry-picked to the upstream, even when "keep-base" meant
+   that the base, on top of which the history is being rebuilt, does
