Would it be OK to rearrange it even more? To me, the above raises the new question "How do I use traverse_commit_list_filtered() to do an unfiltered walk?": Note that our object walk with this function will not perform any better than the previous unfiltered walk, because all reachable objects need to be walked in order to ...
