git change the parent branch

Question

The short story is : I have created Branch A out from the Develop Branch then I created Branch B From Branch A

Answer 1

Let's say that your current branch diagram looks something like this:

develop: A -- B
               \
branchA:        C -- D -- E
                           \
branchB:                    F -- G

You want the B branch to look like this:

develop: A -- B
               \
branchB:        F -- G

Rebase onto can be used here:

git rebase --onto B E

In plain English terms, the above command says to place the commit whose parent is E, which is the F commit (and the start of the B branch) onto a new base which is commit B in the develop branch.
