Curious. I often want to answer this question:
Commit 982ac87 was reported to be faulty. What topic was it on
and at which point was it merged to 'master'?
- What is the 'bottom' of the topic, that is, the commit
reachable from the faulty commit that was already on 'master'
when the faulty commit was written the first time?
- What is the 'top' of the topic, that is, were there more
commits made on top to build on the faulty commit on the
topic before the whole thing was merged to 'master'?
- Were there follow-up fixes and enhancements on the topic
after the topic was merged to 'master' (this is harder)?
And my experiments with --ancestry-path has been less than ideal.
