Here you check the outcome. There is no explicit check whether the rebase
attempted to replay a and b. But that check is implicit: If a or b were
attempted to replay, the rebase would have been interrupted with "no new
changes". Right?

Just curious: Does the last one fail because the result is not correct or
because it does go to the root?
