Yeah, that would be an ambitious project.

This thing is not initialized...

But this loop runs at least once, so logobj will always have some
sane value when the loop exits.

And the only case where this should trigger is when we ran out of
recno.  Am I reading the updated code correctly?

With the updated code, the number of times we return from this
function is different from the number initially set to recno.  I had
to wonder if the caller cares and misbehaves, but the caller does
not know how long the reflog is before starting to call
get_revision() in a loop anyway, so it already has to deal with a
case where it did .recno=20 and get_revision() did not return that
many times.  So this probably is safe.

In general, "properly" is a poor word to use in test description (or
a commit log message or a bug report, for that matter), as the whole
point of a test is to precisely define what is "proper".

And the code change declares that a proper thing to do is to omit
non-commit entries without segfaulting, so something like

    s/displays properly/omits them/

perhaps?
