- --basis is still broken when the basis doesn't have allrevisions which
the source branch has (that the case for all feature branches...).

Also instead of handling the --basis in the cmd, I think basis should be
on argument to the .fetch() methods of the branch classes.

so that the fetch can first try to ask basis and on failure try the real
branch.
