        Oh - it is basically evil ;-) the -r will rebase you existing commits
onto master - by forcibly moving and re-applying them - and in doing so
re-write history.

        Well - the rebasing part is documented here:

        http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-rebase.html

        I'm no expert, but AFAIR if people generally do rebases for small sets
of changes that are not pushed yet - it makes the history look more
linear, and cleaner / easier to read in eg. gitk.

        HTH,

                Michael.
