Hi,

I have a branch that have about 10 descendent branches. Now I would like to move this branch, and all the descendent branches, to a new base, and I might need to do so quiet frequently before I merge it to master branch.

My "dirty" way is to rebase step by step, it takes about 15-20 rebases, but the branches is somehow complicated, and this seems error-prone to me.

Is there a more clean way to do so?
Thanks in advance.

Best Regards, Mac Lin
