This rule is important, because rebase rewrites history.

The first one is the golden rule of rebasing: This view is very useful because sometimes the names of the UI actions are not correlated to the similar or identical names in the Git terminology – for example, choosing “Rebase onto” will not pass the -onto switch to the rebase command.īefore we take a look at the rebase use cases, I would like to point out two things. In the Version Control tool window, the Console tab can be used to see the actual Git commands that are executed. If the configuration is correct, the Git branch selector appears somewhere in the bottom right corner of Android Studio’s window. The VCS roots can be configured in the File / Settings menu, under the Version Control section if they are not detected automatically:

I think that Android Studio – and the IntelliJ platform, the base of the Studio – makes a great job in integrating the Git VCS. In addition, I will use Android Studio‘s Git integration for the demonstration. The purpose of this blog post is to show a few common scenarios where rebase can help. This explanation helps in understanding the feature, but the best way to learn something is to try it. Reading the official documentation may not give enough insight about the usage and the possibilities it opens. Git rebase is one of the most powerful commands Git offers. Maybe one of the most useful feature of Git is the ability to rewrite history, because this makes it possible to fix our mistakes in elegant ways – no need for “revert commits” and other stuff like that. It has a lot of features that makes it suitable for many different workflows, even difficult ones. Git is probably the most popular version control system nowadays.
