6 USAGE='[--onto <newbase>] <upstream> [<branch>]'
7 LONG_USAGE='git-rebase applies to <upstream> (or optionally to <newbase>) commits
8 from <branch> that do not appear in <upstream>. When <branch> is not
9 specified it defaults to the current branch (HEAD).
11 When git-rebase is complete, <branch> will be updated to point to the
12 newly created line of commit objects, so the previous line will not be
13 accessible unless there are other references to it already.
15 Assuming the following history:
17 A---B---C topic
19 D---E---F---G master
21 The result of the following command:
23 git-rebase --onto master~1 master topic
25 would be:
27 A'\''--B'\''--C'\'' topic
29 D---E---F---G master
