Doesn't

$ git-update-index $(git-ls-files --modified)
$ git-checkout -b tempBranch
$ git-commit -m "to test"

work? It also avoids totally bogus parents (if I read your patch 
correctly, you take the current HEAD as the true parent, but record the 
current HEAD of the other branch as parent nevertheless).

Ciao,
