Git Rebase and Interactive Rebase for Chromium Development

The sources provide a comprehensive guide to Git rebasing and interactive rebasing, explaining how these powerful tools rewrite commit history to maintain a clean, linear project record. They detail the fundamental differences between rebase (which reapplies commits to a new base) and merge (which creates a new commit to join histories), emphasizing that rebase is preferred for local history cleanup while merge is safer for shared branches. Furthermore, the text thoroughly explains interactive rebase (git rebase -i), covering its use cases—such as squashing, reordering, and editing commits—to polish feature branches before submission. Finally, the guide incorporates Chromium-specific development workflows and commands, offering crucial best practices like never rebasing public branches and using the reflog for recovery if mistakes occur during the history rewrite process.
