Even after reading your v3 reasoning, I still think it would probably be OK for git-reflog to treat the "never" case as a noop. But frankly it's not worth even spending any more brain cycles on. I can't imagine why somebody would bother to run "reflog expire" without any expiration, outside of git-gc. The improved commit messages all made sense to me (including the NULL oid bits in the final one), with the exception of one nit I pointed out in one of the v3 messages. -Peff
