revert/cherry-pick: work on merge commits as well
Usually you cannot revert a merge because you do not know which side of the merge should be considered the mainline (iow, what change to reverse). With this patch, cherry-pick and revert learn -m (--mainline) option that lets you specify the parent number (starting from 1) of the mainline, so that you can: git revert -m 1 $merge to reverse the changes introduced by the $merge commit relative to its first parent, and: git cherry-pick -m 2 $merge to replay the changes introduced by the $merge commit relative to its second parent.
