Subject: log -g --reverse horribly insane
Date: Sun, 19 Aug 2007 04:56:24 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070819085624.GU27913@spearce.org> (raw)

OK, I'm just too tired to find this on my own right now.  I'll try
again later after I get some sleep, but maybe someone with a
different sleeping pattern than me will find and fix this before
I arise...

  git log -g --reverse --pretty=oneline

Does not produce anything useful.  Results are ranging from getting
a single line with upwards of 50 commits on it and a corrupt log
message to lines with no log message and only one commit, even
though the non --reverse output has over 200 results to report.

  git log -g --reverse

Does not show the reflog message headers, but is otherwise fine.
So it shows the history according to the reflog (I think that's
what I saw) but isn't showing the data I asked for with -g.

Results are the same for HEAD's reflog as for any other branch in
my tree.  Basically its nutso.  I think we need to either support
-g --reverse combination properly, or we need to disallow it.
The current behavior is uh, not user friendly.
