If this is constructed like that then I would expect the code below to
be miss-compiled:

	if (condition)
		for_each_revision(commit, rev) {
		}

As it would be effectivly be:

	if (condition)
		prepare_revision_walk(rev);
	while ((commit = get_revision(rev)) != NULL) {
	}

I think you'd want this to be something more like:

#define for_each_revision(commit, rev) \
	for (prepare_revision_walk(rev); \
		(commit = get_revision(rev))) != NULL); ) {
