git reflog (ab)uses the log machinery to display its list of log
entries. To do so it must fake commit parent information for the log
walker.

For refs in refs/heads this is no problem, as they should only ever
point to commits. Tags and other refs however can point to anything,
thus their reflog may contain non-commit objects.

To avoid segfaulting, we check whether reflog entries are commits before
feeding them to the log walker and skip any non-commits. This means that
git reflog output will be incomplete for such refs, but that's one step
up from segfaulting. A more complete solution would be to decouple git
reflog from the log walker machinery.
