Good point. Thanks for checking.

This seems correct, although your email seems to have done a strange
line wrap that I'm sure you'll fix in the actual patch.

Thanks, this part avoids duplicate additions to the queue.

And this matches the non_common_revs part.

If you want this code to be a little cleaner, you could add

	struct commit *p = parents->item;

at the start of the loop and then s/parents->item/p/ for the rest
of the uses in the loop.

I'm looking forward to your v2!
