Hi Arne,

   >  * | (master~1)
   >  |/ 
   >  |  
   >  * (foo~2)

Thanks, that sounds interesting.

I will give that a try, I just scanned a bit the documentation, but at
first glance I don't see how to rename a branch easily.

Can you give me a hint (but I do not want to abuse you generosity :-D )
