Yeah, it is simply a bad taste to use helper in builtin-A from builtin-B. More library-ish files such as revision.c are better home for utility functions to be shared between builtins and commands.

Here is what I queued.
By the way did you compile test your fix before sending?

-- >8 -- Move read_revisions_from_stdin from builtin-rev-list.c to revision.c

Reading rev-list parameters from the command line can be reused by commands other than rev-list. Move this function to more "library-ish" place to promote code reuse.
