I have started doing some work on a branch which I have in term realised was the wrong branch. Is there a way to move a branch to a different branch.
For example:
A -- B -- C -- D -- HEAD \-- E -- F -- G -- H -- I -- J \-- K -- L And I want this:
A -- B -- C -- D -- HEAD \ \-- K -- L \ \-- E -- F -- G -- H -- I -- J 3 Answers
Let's say you've named your branches like so:
A -- B -- C -- D (master) \-- E -- G -- H -- I -- J (current-parent) \-- K -- L (my-branch) What you want to do is rebase my-branch onto the B commit like so:
git rebase current-parent my-branch --onto B You could use git rebase --onto, e.g.,
git rebase --onto new-base old-base your-branch So in your case, something like:
git rebase --onto B E L should work.
1This is just the sort of thing git rebase can do.
