This commit implements the commands to label, and to reset to, given revisions. The syntax is: label <name> reset <name> As a convenience shortcut, also to improve readability of the generated todo list, a third command is introduced: bud. It simply resets to the "onto" revision, i.e. the commit onto which we currently rebase.The code looks good, but I'm a little wary of adding bud which hard-codes a specific label. I suppose it does grant a bit of readability to the resulting script... ? It doesn't seem that important compared to use using "reset onto"? At least when documenting this it should be made clear that the "onto" label is special.
Indeed, `bud` helped me more in the earlier times of the Git garden shears when I had to *introduce* branch structure into the long list of Git for Windows' patches. If there are no voices in favor of `bud` other than mine, I will remove support for it in the next iteration. Ciao, Dscho
