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.
