OR: After git checkout branchB; git rebase branchA
(or git rebase branchA branchB)
==================================================

A - B - C - D - E - F - G - H  master
                             \
                              \

                                                 M' - N' - O' branchB

(assuming I' is similar enough to I and J' is similar enough
to J that Git can recognize them as equivalent)
