 So, I'd say, since the current code does not and cannot work reliably
 for anyone specifically using --first-parent (with every merge
 encountered, the probability of correctness is multiplied by 0.5 at
 most/least), you are going to do them a favour anyway by fixing the code,
 then why not simplify the convolution and make the code rock-steady (and
 implement my patch)?
The current 'next' branch in git.git contains your patch with my fixup
on top and I believe this fixes _both_ the original issue with
first-parent (thanks to your patch) and the issue Nanako discovered
(thanks to my patch). Am I missing something?
