How about simplifying it to "the base_commit is the merge base of upstream and
specified revision-range."?

Yes, branch_get_upstream(curr_branch, NULL) will safely return NULL if
curr_branch
is NULL, so I think there is no need to add error handling for branch_get().

If there is more than one merge base, commits in base_list should be sorted by
date,
if I am understanding it correctly, so base_list->item should be the lastest
merge base commit, it should be enough for us to used as base commit.
