Ah, I see. It should not be any faster, as git has to internally find the first-parent of $commit either way. The big thing you lose with the above syntax is that you are specifying two endpoints, so you cannot do anything clever with merge commits (e.g., if you gave "--cc"). -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
