 git rev-list ${order} --boundary ${commitlimit}

 is what is used in gitk. In v1.5.0.3:

 $ gitk from..to

shows the boundary commits next to the child, but it is no longer the
case since v1.5.0.3-290-g86ab490.

 Now all the boundary commits are at the bottom.

 While at it, when used with --max-count they are at the bottom too,
and I understand why, but is there a way to tell "show me the boundary
commits next to the child even if it means it takes more time"?

I'd say "--parents", and infer the relevant information.

Sorry, I think I did not expressed it quite well. The "next to the
child" was about the order git-rev-list outputs the commits, not about
the parent information (moreover gitk uses --parents).

While I agree
that it was nicer to scripts earlier, IMHO it was incorrect, too.

Sorry but I do not understand what is incorrect. Are you talking about
the regression or about the --max-count question?
