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.
