"git-merge-base" finds as good a common ancestor as possible between
the two commits. That is, given two commits A and B 'git-merge-base A
B' will output a commit which is reachable from both A and B through
the parent relationship.
Given a selection of equally good common ancestors it should not be
relied on to decide in any particular way.
