Actually what I'd like is to know how many commits git log is going to give me, so that I can do a normal progress bar whose length is proportional to commits_read / total_commits. With --topo-order (or --date-order) it has to get to the last commit before it outputs the first commit, doesn't it? So could it print the total number of commits on a line by itself at the start of its output? (Presumably it would need a --commit-count flag to enable that behaviour.) Other than that, I could slow the progress bar down, or do a bar of moving diagonal stripes, or something.
