This screencast demonstrates varies ways of rebasing commits (Alt+R) with jj-fzf. It begins by rebasing a single revision (Alt+R) before (Ctrl+B) and then after (Ctrl+A) another commit. After that, it moves on to rebasing an entire branch (Alt+B), including its descendants and ancestry up to the merge base, using jj rebase –branch <b> –destination <c>. Finally, it demonstrates rebasing a subtree (Alt+S), which rebases a commit and all its descendants onto a new commit.
