Sorry, but it is unclear what you mean by "than it is of current."
Do you mean we leave it broken at this step in the series for now
for expediency, with the intention to later revisit and fix it, or
do you mean something else?

The original is slightly sloppy in that it will misparse

	rebase --onto 'master^{/log ... message}'

and this shares the same, which I think is probably OK.  When this
actually becomes problematic, the original can easily be salvaged by
making it to fall back to the same peel_committish in its else
clause; I am not sure if this C rewrite is as easily be fixed the
same way, though.
