learn to pick/revert into unborn branch

cherry-picking into an unborn branch should work, so make it work,
with or without --ff.

Cherry-picking anything other than a commit that only adds files, will
naturally result in conflicts. Similarly, revert also works, but will
result in conflicts unless the specified revision only deletes files.
