Probably worth documenting, something like /* Mark this object so that it is skipped for the rest of the traversal. */

> +       LOFR_SHOW      = 1<<1,

And something like /* Invoke show_object_fn on this object. This object may be revisited unless LOFR_MARK_SEEN is also set. */

I think this should be declared closer to its use - in the sparse filter code or in the file that uses it. Wherever it is, also update the chart in object.h to indicate that we're using this 25th bit.

I don't think we typedef enums in Git code.

I think things would be much clearer if a default filter was declared
(matching the behavior as of this patch when filter == NULL), say:
static inline default_filter(args) { switch(filter_type) { case
LOFT_BEGIN_TREE: return LOFR_MARK_SEEN | LOFR_SHOW; case
LOFT_END_TREE: return LOFT_ZERO; ...
And inline traverse_commit_list() instead of putting it in the .c file.

This would reduce or eliminate the need to document traverse_commit_list_worker, including what happens if filter is NULL, and explain how a user would make their own filter_object_fn.
