Darn.  I didn't realize that rev-list had a --left-right to mark
commits with <, >, or - before giving it to the command.  So, that's
one more thing to note: there are positive and negative commits, as
well as commits marked with a direction (in the special case of
--left-right).  Have we missed anything?
