Description
checkout_revision() in libs/hackbot-runtime/hackbot_runtime/revision.py takes ctx as its first argument and only calls ctx.prepare_repo(). Since it operates entirely on the context, make it a method on HackbotContext (or merge it into prepare_repo()) for a cleaner API.

Research direction
Start in libs/hackbot-runtime/hackbot_runtime/revision.py at checkout_revision() and inspect its callers and HackbotContext.prepare_repo(). Decide whether the operation belongs as a HackbotContext method or should be folded into prepare_repo(), then verify that callers use the cleaner API while repository preparation behavior remains unchanged.
