Note that this is true *only* in a case like Xavier's where no
re*base*ing is actually done, and only metadata changes.  His rebased
branch and his original branch have identical content, including the
base (branch point or root).

So I think we can be quite confident that Xavier probably won't run
into the usual set of rebase problems if he decides to go the "rebase
and fixup metadata" route.
