Nice git experience.

With A and B being logical streams of development I made a mess:

main -> A1 -> B1 -> A2 -> B2 -> B3
\-> A3
\-> B4 ... B10

I mixed A, B before noticing the need for 2 branches. I did:

- Switch to A3, rebase interactively to B1'...B3' A1'...A3'
- Switch to B3, rebase interactively and delete all the Ai in front
- Rebase B10 onto B3'.

I de-mixed two streams of development into their respective branches.😀

Watch it happen with gitk --reflog.
