I pushed 0002 to all branches (9.6+), after modifying it to silently do
nothing instead of throwing an error when the dependency exists -- same
we discussed here, for the other form of the command.
I just noticed that I failed to credit Ahsan Hadi as reviewer for this
patch :-(

Thanks for reviewing.  I'll see about 0001 next, also backpatched to
9.6.

I'm still not sure whether to apply 0003 (+ your tab-completion patch,
thanks for it) to backbranches or just to master.  It seems legitimate
to see it as a feature addition, but OTOH the overall feature is not
complete without it ...
