I wrote a little shell script to rebase all my local git

So does the script rebase all branches in a repository? I'm sure I wouldn't like that; I have some branches that are used to keep "old" history around. I realize that I could rebase them, then go back the previous commit to keep it in the old state. But I think I'd prefer to just manage my own rebasing.

My view exactly

I don't try to keep all of my branches up to date.  I manage them
individually.

Ditto.  There are usually quite a few dead branches
that seem to be going nowhere, but I keep them around
just in case I get new inspiration :(

And then when I'm ready to merge back in, I'll typically do a
git rebase -I to get down to a single commit that varies from the branch
point, then I cherry-pick that commit to master.

Again ditto, or merge if cherry-pick isn't necessary

This works nicely for
me because I want to have different branches for each issue to work with
Rietveld, but I like to push from master.

We're exactly in agreement!
