That's on the master branch. I think on the stable one, it used to
report a message like "Commit doesn't have exactly one parent".

In the latest version, we should indeed raise an exception rather than
just assert. I wouldn't declare a new exception class but rather use
an existing one with a meaningful error message. We can't recover from
this anyway and we would simply cancel the operation. I'll let Karl
comment on this as well.

Thanks for reporting it.
