6 USAGE='[--onto <newbase>] <upstream> [<branch>]'
7 LONG_USAGE='git-rebase replaces <branch> with a new branch of the
8 same name. When the --onto option is provided the new branch starts
9 out with a HEAD equal to <newbase>, otherwise it is equal to <upstream>
10 It then attempts to create a new commit for each commit from the original
11 <branch> that does not exist in the <upstream> branch.
12
13 It is possible that a merge failure will prevent this process from being
14 completely automatic. You will have to resolve any such merge failure
15 and run git-rebase --continue. If you can not resolve the merge failure,
16 running git-rebase --abort will restore the original <branch> and remove
17 the working files found in the .dotest directory.
18
19 Note that if <branch> is not specified on the command line, the
20 currently checked out branch is used. You must be in the top
21 directory of your project to start (or continue) a rebase.
