Ok, following the thread I understand why this feature isn't wanted by all. But
for the given example (where I only pulled from another git tree) this could
work, isn't it : ?

tfoerste@n22 ~/devel/linux-2.6 $ git-log v2.6.26-rc9.. | perl -e '@c = grep { /^commit/ } <>; print map { $#c - $i++ . "\t" . $_ } @c'
