This replaces the topmost commit from the earlier series that tried
to optimize N*(N-1) loop with N traversals.  With this, running the
following script in the kernel repository:

-- >8 --
#!/bin/sh

git rev-list --committer=torva...@linux-foundation.org \
    --max-parents=2 --min-parents=2 --parents v3.5..v3.6-rc2 >RL

cmd='
        while read result parent1 parent2
        do
                $GIT merge-base $parent1 $parent2
        done <RL
'

GIT="rungit master" time sh -c "$cmd" >:stock
GIT=../git.git/git time sh -c "$cmd" >:optim
cmp :stock :optim
-- 8< --

shows a slight but measurable boost in the performance of
merge-base itself.

Junio C Hamano (4):
  merge_bases_many(): split out the logic to paint history
  merge-base: "--is-ancestor A B"
  in_merge_bases(): use paint_down_to_common()
  get_merge_bases_many(): walk from many tips in parallel
