Rebase feature branch onto another feature branch

Question

I have two (private) feature branches that I\'m working on.

a -- b -- c                  <-- Master
     \\     \\
      \\     d -- e           <-- Br         


        

Answer 1

Note: if you were on Branch1, you will with Git 2.0 (Q2 2014) be able to type:

git checkout Branch2
git rebase -

See commit 4f40740 by Brian Gesiak modocache:

rebase: allow "-" short-hand for the previous branch

Teach rebase the same shorthand as checkout and merge to name the branch to rebase the current branch on; that is, that "-" means "the branch we were previously on".
