 The other way to do this would be to checkout `wilma` and then create the branch `fred` to point to the same point in the tree.
 You can then `git rebase -i` both these branches, selecting the changes you want in `fred` or `wilma` by retaining the pick likes, and deleting the rest from the editor.
