I am not sure if this will help, but how about a subselect?
SELECT DISTINCT commit_log.*
FROM commit_log_ports,
(SELECT commit_log.id
FROM commit_log
ORDER BY commit_log.commit_date DESC
LIMIT 100) AS commit_log
WHERE commit_log.id = commit_log_ports.commit_log_id
ORDER BY commit_log.commit_date DESC, commit_log.id
LIMIT 100;
