For the git-svn case, I think what is needed is the ability to ask git-svn about the local upstream tracking branch associated with HEAD. Since this is information already available to git-svn rebase, I tried adding a --dry-run option that prints out what I want. In the patch that follows I'm not sure if I've chosen the right terminology...
