title: Is it "ok" to commit to detached head after resolving conflicts when rebasing with TortoiseGit?
body: <p>During a rebase, TortoiseGit gave me a list of conflicts to resolve.  I did that and tried to commit, but then it complained that I was committing to a detached head.  I was given the option to create another branch which I declined.</p>
  
  <p>I've read somewhere that you don't normally want to commit to a detached head, but I read elsewhere that this is a normal part of the rebase operation.  It appeared to work fine, and nothing seems to have been lost.</p>
  
  <p>Did I do the right thing committing to a detached head in this case?</p>
