If we don't have a commit-graph, then we can only terminate the loop early if we discover all of the commits (num_to_find == 0).Otherwise, we need to walk the entire graph in order to determine non-reachability. This relates to Junio's point about in_merge_bases_many(), which I'll respond to his message in more detail about that.

Thanks, -Stolee
