Uhm. What exactly _would_ be upstream?

At the moment, for "--ignore-if-in-upstream" we handle _only_ ranges 
(a..b), where we treat the left part as the upstream, so we first parse 
all the diffs in b..a, and then ignore all commits in a..b which have an 
already-seen diff hash.

However, if we want to do the logical analogue with "-22 HEAD", the 
equivalent to b..a would trivially contain no commits at all.

It sure is supported by the principle of least surprise.
