Two-and-half yucks.

 (1) "We work on the list you give us, if you give us one, but we work on
     a list we come up with outselves in a magic way otherwise" is an API
     designed with a bad taste.  Why not make the original caller run
     for-each-ref before calling this function?

 (2) Why do you have to copy the list, using commit-list-insert, here?

 (3) Even if the above extra copy turns out to be needed, do you need yet
     another copy in "backup"?

Instead of this patch, I would suggest to go this route:

 * Remove local varaible "list" and make it an input parameter.

 * Stop calling for-each-ref from this function.  Instead, have the
   current caller run for-each-ref to prepare list and feed it to you;

 * Stop marking commits with "ONELINE_SEEN" from handle-one-ref.  Instead,
   have the loop to copy list to backup do the marking.

That way, you make the purpose of the function much more clear.  It gets a
list of one or more commits that are in date-order, and finds the most
recent commit reachable from them that match the given string, using
ONELINE_SEEN bit as a scratchpad (shouldn't we be using TMP_MARK here, by
the way?).  The caller is responsible for giving you a sorted list, but
the caller shouldn't care about ONELINE_SEEN bit.
