I agree, it's critical to have a tool that adopts to your workflow, but it's also important that other people don't break your workflow, because like languages the claim of "if you don't like it, just don't use it" is bullshit.

It's bullshit in a codebase. Doesn't mean it's bullshit everywhere else. You'll need to name a concrete problem to drive that specific point home.

So while mercurial has "rebase" so you can use it if you need it, it's disabled by default and flagged as being for expert use, not something that's part of the daily workflow.

I think I can the number of times my workflow has been "broken" by others rebasing on approximately zero hands :).

It just isn't an issue in practice. (Maybe I've just been lucky, who knows?)

I guess I was lucky, too :-) It can affect code reviews. OTOH that's something that reviewer and submitter can agree to without affecting other people's work. Regards, Jo
