Yeah, --no-merged and --merged were done in a quite naïve way.
The patch needs to be cleaned up by splitting it into multiple steps:
 (1) discard everything outside refs/heads and refs/remotes in append_ref();
     why do we even have code to deal with refs/tags to begin with???
 (2) change ref_item->sha1 to ref_item->commit (and make has_commit() take
     struct commit);
 (3) teach merge_filter code not to do has_commit() for each ref, but use
     revision traversal machinery to compute everything in parallel and in
     one traversal.

but other than that, this seems to pass the tests, and is obviously correct ;-)

With an artificial repository that has "master" and 1000 test-$i branches where they were created by "git branch test-$i master~$i":

(with patch) $ /usr/bin/time git-branch --no-merged master >/dev/null 0.12user 0.02system 0:00.15elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (0major+1588minor)pagefaults 0swaps
