Re: Help understanding "rebase"

=== Re: === It may help those who know the internals of git-rebase if you supplied the commands you used and your git version.

So, you're saying you did

   git checkout topic
   git rebase dev

or the equivalent

   git rebase dev topic

? Are you sure you didn't get the arguments to rebase reversed? ===end===

Sorry, I did not write down exactly what I typed. But the situation was the latter:

	git rebase dev topic

While looking at the man page to get the arguments right, with dev being "upstream" and the branch to rewrite last. I suppose I _could_ have gotten it backwards.
