In the tests I made there are checkpoints triggered before using the command. I tried to remove the branch within fast-import variables as well as the already processed objects in git. This command is required because I need to reset a given branch multiple times in order to be able to "guess" its origin commit in the parent branch. To make this analysis I also need to use "checkpoint" at each try.
