I suspect that a "-" in place of a commit object name may not be enough for your purpose, as the _number_ of parents can later change in the later re-output. I wonder if the presense of "incomplete" on the "Final output" line is a good enough indication for that. That is, until you see "Final output: $N done", you will treat the parent information as unreliable. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
