How to check if a commit exists? #721

Description

@strokirk

Like the title says. I'd like to check if a specific commit exists.
Trying to run iter_commits over a rev that doesn't exists throws an exception, and I'd like to avoid that in order to provide nicer user output for my script.

Pseudocode:

if repo.exists(source):
    return list(repo.iter_commits("%s...%s" % (source, target)))
else:
    print("Couldn't find %s, you need to run git fetch")
