Sounds reasonable to me.  Thanks for following up on this after all this
time :)

I (and I believe most git hackers) prefer C-style "&&" for boolean
expressions:

	return if $valid_head && grep { $_ eq $valid_head } @heads_commits;

"and" is lower precedence and best reserved for control flow:

	-f $file and print "File: $file exists!\n";

There's no logical difference in this case, but "&&" is probably easier for
C programmers to read.

I'll just swap "and" for "&&" and push unless there's any objection from
you.
