And it turns out it is a little bit of both.  We have this shown in
"git log --help":

    -g::
    --walk-reflogs::
    ...
    By default, 'commit@\{Nth}' notation is
    used in the output.  When the starting commit is specified as
    'commit@\{now}', output also uses 'commit@\{timestamp}' notation
    instead.

and "git reflog --help" says that "It is an alias for git log -g
--abbrev-commit --pretty=oneline; see git-log(1)." in fairly early
part of its description.
