title: Git interactive rebase no commits to pick
body: <p>I'm on master and I did <code>rebase -i &lt;my_branch&gt;</code></p>
  
  <p>Got this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>noop
  
  # Rebase c947bec..7e259d3 onto c947bec
  #
  # Commands:
  #  p, pick = use commit
  #  r, reword = use commit, but edit the commit message
  #  e, edit = use commit, but stop for amending
  #  s, squash = use commit, but meld into previous commit
  #  f, fixup = like "squash", but discard this commit's log message
  #  x &lt;cmd&gt;, exec &lt;cmd&gt; = Run a shell command &lt;cmd&gt;, and stop if it fails
  #
  # If you remove a line here THAT COMMIT WILL BE LOST.
  # However, if you remove everything, the rebase will be aborted.
  #
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I would like to pick some commits not all as some of them are not welcome.
  Also how do you work when you want to keep some files or changes always 'local' to some branch? Is there some helper like <code>.gitignore</code>?</p>
