git-freebase adds enthusiasm and a sense of flow to your commits.

Installation

Put git-freebase anywhere in your $PATH and mark it executable.

Dependencies (you probably already have these)

• bash
• tr

Use

Apply to your entire repository with:

git freebase HEAD

The script passes its first argument to git-filter-branch as rev-list options.

Being able to specify which revisions to use conveniently or precisely is not really in the spirit of this application, so any subsequent arguments are ignored.

Warning

git-freebase modifies history. It uses git filter-branch to capitalize and remove punctuation from your commit messages. This is not an easy thing to undo.
