From: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclo...@gmail.com>

Before anything is printed, for-each-ref sorts all refs first.  As
part of the sorting, populate_value() is called to fill the values in
for all atoms/placeholders per entry. By the time sort_refs() is done,
pretty much all data is already retrieved.

This works fine when data can be cheaply retrieved before
%(upstream:track) comes into the picture. It may take a noticeable
amount of time to process %(upstream:track) for each entry. All
entries add up and make --format='%(refname)%(upstream:track)' seem
hung for a few seconds, then display everything at once.

Improve the responsiveness by only processing the one atom (*) at a
time so that processing one atom for all entries (e.g. sorting) won't
cause much delay (unless you choose a "heavy" atom to process).

(*) This is not entirely correct. If you sort by an atom that needs
object database access, then it will fill all atoms that need odb.
Which is not a bad thing. We don't want to access odb once at sorting
phase and again at display phase.
