Yea, I know. Its way back on my things-to-do list. Right now I'm a bit too swamped with day-job to try and put unit tests into the revwalk package. There's two open issues on the issue tracker that tests should be able to cover and permit debugging of.

I'll come back to revwalk tests. I did some tests for treewalk not too long ago, but even more are still need there too. And lets not even mention the transport package. ;-)

I ran into this bug because I was relying on RevWalk in my day-job
project.  When it barfed I fixed it, and moved on.

Yea, you can get a short address if you ask nicely. Given that everything is email based its nice having a short address. Makes it easy to tell others in person how to reach me. Fortunately most of the company uses longer addresses, so three (and four) letter words are still available.

I must not have my egit.git repository configured right on my work laptop. I usually don't do egit work there.
