[commit: ghc] master: Merge branch 'master' of http://darcs.haskell.org/ghc (fd6587b)

[Simon Peyton-Jones]

| I think what SimonM described in the recent thread is basically what we want:
| 
| - you develop in your working tree and commit patches there.  At
|   this point it's completely safe to rebase - the patches are only
|   in one place.

I don't think so.   Like I say, the branch is shared between several collaborators.  Each is modifying branch. Each is merging in changes from the other.  Each is (occasionally, to be sure) merging changes from the HEAD).

As I understand it, the moment you share a repo, you can't rebase any more.  I'd be delighted to learn otherwise.
