Why doesn't it do what you what?

I hate to be the worry wart, but I am worried folks are going to avoid `git rebase -i` even more now. It is such an excellent excellent UI in my opinion: it shows you the history of what is clearly, and let's you modify it as you please!

If you have anything else branching/referencing a commit after the reword commit that isn't part of the branch you are rebasing you now have all those references still pointing to the old commit and need to go through every one of them to fix them.
