Seeing some weird results out of rev-list, see my demo repo: https://github.com/bmcorser/rev-list-fail

I was after a one-liner to sort a bunch of commit hashes into topological (or date) order. The commits were made by a script that forges the commit time with --date in the hope of seeing stable results.

Any ideas welcome,
Ben
