I was thinking about

  $ git bundle create my-bundle --all --not $(git ls-remote my-bundle | cut -f1)

(or `--branches' instead of `--all').  Or, if you don't want to keep
bundle, but only save basis, just use

  $ git bundle create my-bundle --all --not $(git basis --show my-basis)

No need for `--stdin' / `--revs' / `--basis' option to git-bundle,
at the cost of little shell trickery.

Or even

  $ git ls-remote my-bundle | cut -f1 > my-bases
  [...]
  $ git bundle create my-bundle --all --not $(cat my-bases)

See above example, to check if this would be enough...

I'm not sure if another name, like --bases=<filename / basename> wouldn't
be better.  Perhaps --stdin is a good name...
