You neither need to use interactive rebase nor carefully edit, since there is rebase --onto.

I do this often it's not more complicated then any other rebase.

What is annoying in Git is rebaseing across multiple merges while forging committer and date information. Can JJ do that better?



Ah I misinterpreted what "keep the rebase commits" meant.

I'm glad you don't find it too difficult to do. It's a workflow that seemingly works well for you!
