Hmmm... how does the --topo-order logic ensure that parents are shown after all of their children? Essentially I want that logic applied to the boundary parent commits as well as the requested commits. The other thing is that if git-rev-list can actually list those boundary parents, complete with the whole commit message if --header is given, then that will save gitk from having to do a git-cat-file to get that information.
