Doesn't --date-order have the same guarantee as --topo-order with respect
to parents and children, only that commits that can be rearranged such
that the guarantee remains are emitted in date order?

Anyway, the patch is unnecessary: If --date-order is needed, it can be
passed on the command line; this will override --topo-order.
