Have you tried interactive rebase (rebase -i)? I find it very useful

I’m sorry but that’s incorrect. “Rewriting the commit history” is not possible in git, since commits are immutable. What rebase actually does is reapply each commit between upstream and head on top of upstream, and then reset the current branch to the last commit applied (This is by default, assuming no interactive rebase and other advanced uses). But don’t take my word for it, just read the manual. https://git-scm.com/docs/git-rebase

That’s called rebasing

I agree with this comment but I don’t think it qualifies as a genocide, “just” a horrifying unwarranted act of war.
