Well, a typical use case for me is:

	stg branch master
	git pull .
	stg branch 2.6.20-rc5
	stg export -d /tmp/temp-stack
	stg branch master
	stg branch -C 2.6.20-rc6
	stg import -s /tmp/temp-stack/series 

That's because I want to keep the original patch series for
2.6.20-rc5, but I also want rebase the patch set to 2.6.20-rc6.  Is
there a better way of doing this?
