**What I did**: @durin42 suggested in the issue page <https://bz.mercurial-scm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5746> that the error was in the `verify` function of the `histedit.py` file. But when I ran through debugger using a revision number, the code was throwing the error before it reaches the `verify` function. Specifically in the `fromrules` function of the `histedit.py` file. It was earlier only accepting rulehashes, I changed that to accept any revset using the `scmutil.revsingle` function suggested by @timeless on the IRC channel.
