I try to write a "git annotate" based on the output of git-whatchanged. Since git-whatchanged only shows the commit and its parent, I need to figure out what was the last diff that led to the current commit's state. This needs git-rev-tree.

Ciao, Dscho

P.S.: My only unsolved problem is that git-whatchanged sometimes shows the diffs in the wrong order (clock-skew problem?)
