You can also specify the commit at the end of the history to be
rebased (very useful while trial runs to see where a series should
apply):

    git rebase foo ":/Add B"

This is already handled properly because it first gets turned into
an object name $orig_head and then we use it (without ^0) to update
the ORIG_HEAD.

Even after this patch, there is

        git checkout -q "$onto^0"

when detaching the HEAD to that commit.  Can that peeling be dropped
now (I am not suggesting to drop it in this patch)?

What would happen when you are given "--onto :/f...o" is somewhat
interesting, but that may be a separate topic, I think.  At that
point, it is probably in the realm of "don't do it then" ;-)
