Perhaps something like this instead?
git-rebase - Rebuild a branch on top of a different commit
I would say "Replay history on top of a different commit" instead.
"Rebuild" may be misleading (it's not "build" as in "compile & link"),
and the rebased history does not technically have to be a branch.
But both are far better than what we have IMHO.
