That would work.

The problem is that, if you rebase again and I don't notice, then
it'll generate a pile of conflicts.  Is there someway that I can flag
my next tree as depending on a certain commi existing in another tree
so that the scripts that generate linux-next will ignore it if the
base commit goes away?
