BTW, do you typically have useful history on these branches?
Typically the reason to preserve history is for commit logs (which we
drop when we commit the branch as a squash) or for merges (which we're
breaking because we're rebasing).
It would be a lot faster if it could forward-port a branch as a single
commit instead of multiple.
