You forgot the "--all" option to rev-list.
And I doubt it would be the "fastest" way, in terms of execution speed.
Also, it leaves out this case:
rc9 - A - B - C - D - F
\ /
----- E -----
F would be "rc9-5", but also "rc9-2".
Oh, and this would leave out reflogs, too.
Can we please let this concept die now?
