We have test -f "$workdir"/../map/$sha1 && continue in the codepath for remap-to-ancestor prostprocessing to do pretty-much the same skipping. I think the new code should follow suit, i.e. if test -f "$workdir/../map/$commit" then continue fi to check just the existence for consistency. It would have been reviewer friendly if the proposed commit log message said how this change does *not* break the progress output and count. A possible alternative optimization could be not to add these already mapped commits in ../revs file in the first place (so they are not even counted as part of $commits), and such a change would give different meaning to the progress output (which may or may not be a good change). Instead, the posted patch counts the commits to be filtered the same way as before, and merely pretends that it filtered those commits to their mapped counterparts without spending any cycle (simply because we already _know_ what they are mapped to), so the meaning of the numbers in the progress display does not change at all---just they appear to progress much faster, which is a welcome change ;-)
