I inadvertently passed a base commit that was not an ancestory of head and exploded branch could not be cherry-picked cleanly on top of base (because of head..base changes).
pygit2 does not have an equivalent of
git merge-base --is-ancestor
, so use the closes approximation by comparing merge base to base. (Hopefully, the "base" is picked by merge_base function when there are multiple merge bases possible so that this ancestor check is corect.)
