In a StGit repository the --all option causes a lot of spurious revisions, possibly stgit related.

$ git branch
* master
  origin
  test

$ git rev-list master origin test -- src/settingsimpl.cpp | wc
     13      13     533

$ git rev-list --all -- src/settingsimpl.cpp | wc
     26      26    1066

The extra revisions have shortlogs of the kind of:

 push        a3bc76fd0bdd154149c26a3c208f0344e9cd873b
 new e7baf56544cd8b4f8601a35fad274b8de97fd558
refresh     8fa01a56a40b04ed9c6d006c669ca9d370176728

From qgit these are easily seen from file history tab of a file modified by stgit patches or when filtering in main view on the same file.

Shouldn't 'git-rev-list --all' print *the same output* of when the list with all branches is given in command line?

Thanks Marco
