[PATCH] t3400 (rebase): add failing test for a peculiar rev spec

[Ramkumar Ramachandra <artagnon@gmail.com>]

'git rebase' does not recognize revisions specified as :/text.  This
is because the attempts to rev-parse ${REV}^0, which fails in this
case.  Add a test to document this failure.

 Okay, so I'm not sure what the right fix for this is.

 - The :/text syntax seems to be broken in the first place, as it
   can't be combined with ^ or @.  I'd like to be able to say
   {:/bardery}^1, or even {:/foomery}^{/communist mule}.  Why
   shouldn't I be allowed to do this?

 - The failure occurs in git-rebase.sh:403.  Is it using the ^0 only
   to make sure that the revision specified is a commit?  Surely,
   there'a a better way to do this?

 Can someone point me in the right direction?
