+# $2 -- the branch being rebased (or empty when rebasing the current branch).
+#
+# This sample shows how to prevent topic branches that are already
+# merged to 'next' branch from getting rebased, because allowing it
+# would result in rebasing already published history.

+
+This sample hook safeguards topic branches that have been
+published from being rewound.
+
+The workflow assumed here is:
+
+ * Once a topic branch forks from "master", "master" is never
+ merged into it again (either directly or indirectly).
+
+ * Once a topic branch is fully cooked and merged into "master",
+ it is deleted. If you need to build on top of it to correct
+ earlier mistakes, a new topic branch is created by forking at
+ the tip of the "master". This is not strictly necessary, but
+ it makes it easier to keep your history simple.
+
+ * Whenever you need to test or publish your changes to topic
+ branches, merge them into "next" branch.
+
+The script, being an example, hardcodes the publish branch name
+to be "next", but it is trivial to make it configurable via
+$GIT_DIR/config mechanism.
+
+With this workflow, you would want to know:
+
+(1) ... if a topic branch has ever been merged to "next". Young
+ topic branches can have stupid mistakes you would rather
+ clean up before publishing, and things that have not been
+ merged into other branches can be easily rebased without
+ affecting other people. But once it is published, you would
+ not want to rewind it.
+
+(2) ... if a topic branch has been fully merged to "master".
+ Then you can delete it. More importantly, you should not
+ build on top of it -- other people may already want to
+ change things related to the topic as patches against your
+ "master", so if you need further changes, it is better to
+ fork the topic (perhaps with the same name) afresh from the
+ tip of "master".
+
+Let's look at this example:
+
+ o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o "next"
+ / / / /
+ / a---a---b A / /
+ / / / /
+ / / c---c---c---c B /
+ / / / \ /
+ / / / b---b C \ /
+ / / / / \ /
+ ---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o "master"
+
+
+A, B and C are topic branches.
+
+ * A has one fix since it was merged up to "next".
+
+ * B has finished. It has been fully merged up to "master" and "next",
+ and is ready to be deleted.
+
+ * C has not merged to "next" at all.
+
+We would want to allow C to be rebased, refuse A, and encourage
+B to be deleted.
+
+To compute (1):
+
+ git rev-list ^master ^topic next
+ git rev-list ^master next
+
+ if these match, topic has not merged in next at all.
+
+To compute (2):
+
+ git rev-list master..topic
+
+ if this is empty, it is fully merged to "master".
