Jeff KingWhen you give a non-existent branch to git-rebase, it spits out the usage. This can be confusing, since you may understand the usage just fine, but simply have made a mistake in the branch name.
Before:
$ git rebase origin bogus Usage: git rebase ...
After:
$ git rebase origin bogus fatal: no such branch: bogus Usage: git rebase ...
