Yeah, I noticed this too. What we want is to create a spanning tree by left-first
DFS (amputating edges connecting to already visited vertices), and then walk the
amputated tree in a right-first DFS (and then not sort the commits any further).
The tricky part is getting the results of the right-first DFS before the left-first
(amputation) DFS finishes. I'm working on it.

I though this was only a schematic ruler, but, counting it now, it is exact.
I'll fix it.

Thank you,
