    Send the base commit ID for a change to the server when using Git.
    
    When uploading a change to a new enough Review Board server, the base
    commit ID is sent along in the request. This ID/revision represents the
    upstream commit that the diff (or its parent diff) applies to. It can be
    used by the server to communicate with hosting services that otherwise
    do not work solely with the content found in the diffs.
    Tested with my Review Board change, and saw the base commit ID in the
    database.
    
    Posted this change on reviews.reviewboard.org, which doesn't have the
    base commit ID support, and it didn't fail.
