Sidenote: I wonder why reading config was postponed to later in the
command lifetime... I guess it was to avoid having to read config if
HEAD was invalid.

I guess this is because we avoid re-parsing objects at all costs; we
want to avoid re-reading commit graph too.

I would prefer if this commit was put earlier in the series, to avoid
having broken Git (and thus a possibility of problems when bisecting) in
between those two commits.

Good.

All right.  (though I wonder if this tests catches all problems where
BUG("bad generation skip") could have been encountered.
