Re: [RFC] git reflog show

So what you are proposing is to make the reflog visible in 'git log'
by a new option?  Or to just try to reuse all of its display code
but keep the reflog under 'git reflog show' ?

I am not specifically proposing anything, but the part you
quoted is about the latter.

What Johannes brought up would involve hooking into the usual
log walking machinery to show the commits in "merge order" (more
precisely, "local appearance order").  I do not think it is
about "showing the reflog data", but about using reflog data to
give a different presentation order to the usual log output.
Your "reflog show" is more about showing what are recorded in
the reflog.

It is not like implementing the sorting of the logs in local
appearance order would make your "reflog show" redundant or
useless; both are independently useful, I think.
