Rebase feature branch onto another feature branch

by

I have two (private) feature branches that I’m working on.

a -- b -- c                  <-- Master
     \     \
      \     d -- e           <-- Branch1
       \
        f -- g               <-- Branch2

After working on these branches a little while I’ve discovered that I need the changes from Branch2 in Branch1. I’d like to rebase the changes in Branch2 onto Branch1. I’d like to end up with the following:

a -- b -- c                  <-- Master
           \
            d -- e -- f -- g <-- Branch1

I’m pretty sure I need to rebase the second branch onto the first, but I’m not entirely sure about the correct syntax and which branch I should have checked out.

Will this command produce the desired result?

(Branch1)$ git rebase --onto Branch1 Branch2
