Re: Gitk strangeness..

Would it be possible to put the '-' in only for the last child that
has that parent?

Not trivially.  We do not keep track of who are children of a
commit.

Hmmm... how does the --topo-order logic ensure that parents are shown
after all of their children?  Essentially I want that logic applied to
the boundary parent commits as well as the requested commits.

The other thing is that if git-rev-list can actually list those
boundary parents, complete with the whole commit message if --header
is given, then that will save gitk from having to do a git-cat-file to
get that information.
