Bug Description
When a line has been partly parsed, parse errors should report what has already
been parsed, so that the user can match it up with the usage message, roughly:
End of line while looking for the branch to merge
Usage: merge NAME BRANCH [REVISION]
Line was:
merge foo
Parsed:
NAME=foo
This will help the user catch what is missing, when they forget a part in the middle
or something.
