I have made gitk use git-rev-list instead of git-rev-tree, but it
still absorbs the whole of git-rev-list's output before drawing
anything.  I'd like to make it draw the commit graph and list
incrementally as it gets the output from git-rev-list, but to do that
I need to know whether git-rev-list could ever print a commit ID
*after* one of its parents.  If it never does that then I can
restructure the code to do the drawing incrementally fairly easily.

Paul.
