init: make bad --repo-rev settings more clear

If the user passes a bad --repo-rev setting in a new checkout, add a
tip to the error message that their option is probably bad instead of
just saying "unable to resolve".

If the user has already initialized a checkout, we'd display a raw
traceback which would confuse them.  Swallow that and also include
the --repo-rev tip.
