Preserve extra dict (issue3430):

  (branches are permanent and global, did you want a bookmark?)

  $ echo a >> a

  $ hg ci --amend -m "a'"

Also preserve other entries in the dict that are in the old commit,

first graft something so there's an additional entry:

  $ hg up 0 -q

  $ echo z > z

  $ hg ci -Am 'fork'

  adding z

  created new head

  $ hg up 11
