Your get_merge_bases() function is another small step in cleanup and libification, so I think it's perfectly valid regardless of whether somebody uses it yet. A lot of the libification effort ends up being preparatory, because often you need to get past a hump of libifying a _lot_ in order to actually use something in a library. So at first, the only user is usually the old separate program. So you libify get_merge_bases, and initially the only user is git-merge-base, which could now be made a built-in, since the bulk of its code is going to be linked in regardless..
