[PATCH] cg-admin-rewritehist: Seed the commit map with the parents specified with -r.

[Johannes Sixt <johannes.sixt@telecom.at>]

When the first commit is manufactured, its parents are looked up in the
commit map. However, without this patch the map is always empty at that time.
If the entire history is rewritten, this is no problem because the first
commit does not have any parents anyway. However, if -r is used to constrain
rewriting to only part of the history, this first commit is manufactured
incorrectly without parents because 'cat' fails.

Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <johannes.sixt@telecom.at>

I'm posting this again, because I haven't received any feedback nor has
the patch been applied.
