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.
