Re: [TopGit PATCH 6/6] tg-log: short cut to git log

Hi,

Using --first-parent to get only the interesting commits only works reliably

I wish that git remembered which branch a commit was initially made on. That
would make "tg log" easy to implement correctly. But since git doesn't, I
don't think it is possible to implement it properly.

At least, a warning should be added to the README.

Oh right, I missed that, when looking over the patch.  Maybe doing
something like:

	git log $name ^base(name) $(for d in dep(name); do echo ^$d)

would work?

Thanks
Uwe
