rebase: calculate ancestors for --base separately (issue5420)
Previously, the --base option only works with a single "branch" - if there
is one changeset in the "--base" revset whose branching point(s) is/are
different from another changeset in the "--base" revset, "rebase" will error
out with:
abort: source is ancestor of destination
This happens if the user has multiple draft branches, and uses "hg rebase -b
'draft()' -d master", for example. The error message looks cryptic to users
who don't know the implementation detail.
This patch changes the logic to calculate the common ancestor for every
"base" changeset separately so we won't (incorrectly) select "source" which
is an ancestor of the destination.
This patch should not change the behavior where all changesets specified by
"--base" have the same branching point(s).
A new situation is: some of the specified changesets could be rebased, while
some couldn't (because they are descendants of the destination, or they do
not share a common ancestor with the destination). The current behavior is
to show "nothing to rebase" and exits with 1.
This patch maintains the current behavior (show "nothing to rebase") even if
part of the "--base" revset could be rebased. A clearer error message may be
"cannot find branching point for X", or "X is a descendant of destination".
The error message issue is tracked by issue5422 separately.
A test is added with all kinds of tricky cases I could think of for now.
this structure seems to tickle a bug in bundle's search for
changesets, so first we have to recreate it

check that "hg outgoing" really does the right thing
sanity check of outgoing: expect revs 4 5 6 7 8
$ hg clone -r3 . ../repo2
adding changesets
adding manifests
adding file changes
added 4 changesets with 4 changes to 1 files
updating to branch default
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
this should (and does) report 5 outgoing revisions: 4 5 6 7 8
$ hg outgoing --template "{rev}\n" ../repo2
comparing with ../repo2

test bundle (destination repo): expect 5 revisions
this should bundle the same 5 revisions that outgoing reported, but it
actually bundles 7
$ hg bundle foo.bundle ../repo2
searching for changes
5 changesets found
test bundle (base revision): expect 5 revisions
this should (and does) give exactly the same result as bundle
with a destination repo... i.e. it's wrong too
$ hg bundle --base 3 foo.bundle
5 changesets found
$ cd ..
