You should mention the changeset that introduced the regression.

Patch looks ugly but correct. The rebase code probably need additional cleanup
and documentation. But as you said on IRC the fix for stable should be simpler.

However, It seems like your fix could be smaller.

Can't that be just `dest = repo[target]` that would remove needs to update
other code part. making the change smaller and safer.

I just had a look at the "function" you are patching and it size and complexity
are really scary.
