You mean get_parent_map() not get_parents(), or is this a layering issue?
get_parent_map() should be returning nothing for entries that are not present,
not None.
If we have one that is returning None, I think we should change it, so that we
don't have lots of hackery in all of our callers.

As they aren't ghosts, though, it should *probably* be returning either the
empty list or the (NULL_REVISION,) key.

I'm *really* unhappy that I don't have a straight answer for you. Personally,
I find the (NULL_REVISION,) hack a bit crufty, and I never quite know when we
need to insert it or not. The api I feel is cleanest would be:

1) get_parent_map(['existing_key']) => {'existing_key':('parent1', 'parent2')}

2) get_parent_map(['ghost']) => {}

3) get_parent_map(['first-rev']) => {'first-rev':()}

I suppose with the VersionedFiles changes, all those become tuples. Now, I'm
somewhat okay with changing (3) to be:

3b) get_parent_map(['first-rev']) => {'first-rev':(NULL_REVISION,)}
    get_parent_map(['NULL_REVISION']) => {'NULL_REVISION':()}

However, if we do that, I would really like to see our records on disk change.
So that we store NULL_REVISION as the parent of a record with no other
parents. Right now, we have a lot of friction, and have to loop over
everything we read, to make sure that we don't need to insert NULL_REVISION
here and there, and strip it off here and there.

I prefer the original (3) because it doesn't lead to cases where we ask a
knit/repository/whatever for the text for NULL_REVISION, and *it* has to
special case to recognize that it is a special revision.

Anyway, we are where we are, and it sounds like get_parent_map() for these
objects needs to be returning (NULL_REVISION,) instead of None everywhere
Because I *think* it is saying, I have these revisions, but they have no
parents. If it is actually saying "I don't have these revisions" then it
should be returning an empty dict.
