Not that way, no. "git log" generates the data on-the-fly, so a simple 
"git log" will always give most recent first.

However, you can do this

        git log --pretty=oneline v2.6.16.. crypto/

to generate a list of commits, one per line. Then, reverse that list 
("tac" is your friend), and feed it back to "git-diff-tree --stdin 
--pretty -p" to get the diffs.

So

        git log --pretty=oneline v2.6.16.. crypto/ |
                tac |
                git-diff-tree --stdin --pretty -p

should do what you want.

Of course, the patches (to other files than the crypt/ subdirectory) may 
still clash due to changes that are unrelated to the crypto changes. That 
is unavoidable, and you'll just have to fix that up by hand.
