Re: [BUG] multi-commit cherry-pick messes up the order of commits

Hi Johannes,

Why do we need a new flag?

 git show origin/master origin/maint
 git show origin/maint origin/master

show the revisions in different order, in particular, in the order
requested on the command line. Shoudn't cherry-pick be able to do the
same without new hacks?

That was my first reaction too -- then I saw builtin/push.c (the
builtin show is quite similar), and found out that it doesn't use the
revision walker at all.  It operates on refs, which has different
semantics altogether (called "refspec" in some places I think).
