To be consistent, I think the result should be "as if the change
was commited only to the topic-branch and then the topic-branch
was *merged* into the testing-branch", since you start your
testing branch as "being the result of several merged topic-branches".
I do that (manually) all the time, with:
$ git checkout next
$ hack hack hack
$ git checkout -m one/topic
$ git commit -o this-path that-path
$ git checkout next
$ git pull . one/topic
Giving a short-hand for the last four-command sequence would
certainly be nice.
