I have to admit that I am not a fan of this change, as I find that there are legitimate use cases where I want to order the commits by commit topology, and other use cases where I want to order them by date. Maybe other reviewers agree with your reasoning, though, in that case you still will need to address the test failures in t4202, t4215 and t6012: https://dev.azure.com/gitgitgadget/git/_build/results?buildId=25867&view=ms.vss-test-web.build-test-results-tab Ciao, Johannes > > Sergey Rudyshin (1): > Preserve topological ordering after merges This modifies the algorithm > of topopological ordering.
