So who is right? I think it was before rc1.
Anyway I'm aware that there are other git commands, although for the option
details I often have to have a look at the man page.
However in this case the main reason to fire gitk was to have a quick look
at the patch and its context, and simply reported the "Precedes" line
in the display, which is 2.6.39-rc1. It also follow v2.6.37-rc2, which means
that it has been quite a long time outside the main tree.

Yep, correct. I interpreted the output of git name-rev to mean it's not
included in a tag earlier than v2.6.39-rc2, but actually that's wrong.
It's just that it's easier (for some definition of easy) to reach the
commit in question from v2.6.39-rc2 than from v2.6.39-rc1.
However in this case the main reason to fire gitk was to have a quick look
at the patch and its context, and simply reported the "Precedes" line
in the display, which is 2.6.39-rc1. It also follow v2.6.37-rc2, which means

I think this conclusion isn't valid in general. (E.g. in git itself a
bug-fix is often done on top of the commit that introduced it and than
merged into master. Still the bugfix might be new.) But looking at the
AuthorDate of 69a07f0b117a seems to support your statement.
Best regards
