Thanks for the patch.  However, the commit message doesn't mention
that the patch also adds the 'checkout from parent' menu item or why
that's a useful thing to have.  I like the 'checkout from this commit'
thing but I don't immediately see why checking out from the first
parent is so useful that we have to have it as a menu item, but
checking out from other parents of a merge isn't.

Also, don't bother updating the po files.  The translators generally
prefer it if we don't.

Paul.
