Are you thinking about "git rebase"?

"rebase" is the "replay" command: it tries to replay/relocate all your
local commits on top of a moving head (typically: the upstream head).
You need git rebase when you want a linear history; it is the
"anti-merge" / "anti-diamond" command.

You need to run "git fetch" first. "git help rebase" has nice
diagrams, no real need to google (but it does not hurt).

git rebase --interactive is also great to rewrite your own, local,
private history, but this is another story.
