This will not make sense to a lot of people. I've been around here since git was invented, and I think I can guess what it means, but I'm not completely sure. A "commit walker" is something that probably only a few core git developers know what it is.

Please remember to give a second of thought to who will be reading this. It is very hard to determine from this short message who will be affected, and in what way.
