 summary:     merge: fast-forward merge with descendant

Before named branches, the invariants were:

a) "merges" always have two parents
b) p1 is not linearly related to p2

Adding named branches made (b) problematic, so the above patch was
introduced, which fixed (b) but broke (a).

After discussion, we decided that the invariants should be:

a) "merges" always have two parents
b) p1 is not linearly related to p2 OR p1 and p2 are on different branches

  $ hg init
  $ echo a > a
  $ hg ci -Ama
  adding a

  $ echo b > b
  $ hg branch b
  marked working directory as branch b
  $ hg ci -Amb
  adding b

  $ hg co -C 0
  0 files updated, 0 files merged, 1 files removed, 0 files unresolved

Fast-forward:

  $ hg merge b
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)
  $ hg ci -Ammerge

Bogus fast-forward should fail:

  $ hg merge b
  abort: merging with a working directory ancestor has no effect
