cc0e6c5 (Handle return code of parse_commit in revision machinery,
2007-05-04) attempted to tighten error checking in the revision machinery,
but it wasn't enough. When get_revision_1() was asked for the next commit
to return, it tries to read and simplify the parents of the commit to be
returned, but an error while doing so was silently ignored and reported as
a truncated history to the caller instead.
This resulted in an early end of "git log" output or a pack that lacks
older commits from "git pack-objects", without any error indication in the
exit status from these commands, even though the underlying parse_commit()
issues an error message to the end user.
Note that the codepath in add_parents_list() that paints parents of an
UNINTERESTING commit UNINTERESTING silently ignores the error when
parse_commit() fails; this is deliberate and in line with aeeae1b
(revision traversal: allow UNINTERESTING objects to be missing,
2009-01-27).

* Dscho, do not complain that I did not use test_commit, because this is
meant to apply against maint-1.5.4, which happens to be the oldest
maintenance track I am still keeping around. The breakage actually
goes even older; cc0e6c5 is *not* the culprit, but merely an incomplete
attempt to fix this issue.
There is a fairly obvious comflict when this patch is applied to maint
and master, but I'll be merging the commit upward after a bit more
testing.
