    Any standard options typically accepted by git rebase (e.g., -i, --onto, , ). These are usually passed directly to the underlying git rebase command, allowing the user to interactively "psychoanalyze" their history.

git-psykorebase is a non-standard, humorous Git command, often implemented as a simple shell script or an April Fool's joke. It aims to playfully satirize the often complex and sometimes "traumatic" process of using git rebase by suggesting a "psychological evaluation" of your commit history.

While its actual implementation varies, it typically involves printing humorous messages related to commit trauma, therapy, or psychological analysis before potentially invoking the standard git rebase -i command to allow the user to interactively modify their history. It serves no technical purpose beyond entertainment and acts as a light-hearted commentary on the challenges of maintaining clean Git commit logs. Users should not expect it to perform any actual psychological operations on their repository.

git-psykorebase is purely for humor and educational commentary on Git workflows. It provides no functional improvement to Git itself and should not be relied upon for critical repository operations. Its actual behavior depends entirely on how it's implemented by individual users or pranksters; it might just print a joke message, or it might indeed call git rebase -i. Always understand the underlying git rebase command before using this or any similar wrapper.

This command is typically implemented as a standalone executable script (e.g., git-psykorebase placed in your PATH) that acts as a Git subcommand. When invoked, it often outputs satirical messages about your commits' mental state before performing a standard Git rebase operation. It's best used when you need a chuckle after a particularly frustrating rebase session.

git-psykorebase doesn't have a formal development history or a specific creator. It emerged as a recurring joke and community script within the Git ecosystem, often seen around April Fool's Day or as a humorous take on the complexities of git rebase. Its purpose is primarily to lighten the mood around a powerful, but sometimes daunting, Git operation.
