I think we basically have it anyway. Actually, I take that back. It's hard. Not because we don't have the commits, but because while we do the top-level shape pruning in the eearly stages, we do *not* do the final path-limiting until we actually output the commits. Which actually makes "--early-output" right now do some rather odd things when you use a path limiter: we don't do the "rewrite_parents()" thing until later, so the early output will have done the first level of history simplification, but it won't have made history *dense* yet. I'm looking at it now, I'll have to think about this a bit more. It might be trivial to fix, but this thing has real potential for being subtle.
