was created using git commit though. I guess the committer's clock just
was a little late at that point.
Heh. I thought it was imported from the outside because the commit log 
looks so damn nasty. I'm used to projects with good and readable logs, so 
I associate "native" git repos with logs that actually explain what's 
going on.

But yeah, it looks like your repo is a perfectly native git repo, it just 
has really sucky log messages. I guess you can create crap logs in any 
SCM, even if the system is written to encourage good logs ;)
