I really like how right now I can pull new packages some configure script needs, without having to shut down 4-5 sessions of emacs.Seriously, you could propose a patch to rebase, which leaves blocked DLLs alone and only tries to rebase the colliding ones, if any. Plus a patch to rebaseall to add a flag "--don't-test-for-ash-only-just-ignore-what-you-can't-change". Well, a single char option might be better...
The rebase sources are available by CVS:
$ cvs -d "pserver:anoncvs@sourceware.org:/cvs/cygwin-apps co rebase
Send patches to the cygwin-apps list.As I mentioned in cygwin-apps, I think a --backup option of some kind would be useful so you could restore to a previous state.
Why won't anyone implement my idea????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!
