Wouldn't it be possible to have not that more complex code if some
of the commit objects (newer) would have "generation" header, and some
of them (older) wouldn't have it? Git would use generation header if it is
present, and current heuristic timestamp based code if it is not present.
It would be better of course if the new commits have correct "generation"
header, so insertion of "new" commit after "old" commit would have some
extra overhead...
