Seeing the issue with versions of git from 1.7 to 2.1. I have a small test repo on GitHub that demonstrates the problem. I expect it is caused by the commit dates being out of sequence: 1. Clone the revlist repo: # git clone https://github.com/pcharlan/revlist.git Cloning into 'revlist'... 2. master has six commits (with out-of-order dates): # git log --pretty='%h %cd' master 0f9e594 Sun May 20 01:01:01 2007 -0700 1ad887b Sun May 20 01:01:01 2007 -0700 cde7188 Sun May 20 01:01:01 2007 -0700 51af1c0 Sun May 20 01:01:01 2007 -0700 -- date seven years ago 0e080e8 Tue Aug 12 11:51:19 2014 -0700 -- present day 77ce973 Fri May 20 01:01:01 2011 -0700 -- three years ago 3. Pruning master with origin/other (a branch with the same root and also out-of-order dates) has no effect, counter to expectation: # git log --pretty='%h %cd' master ^origin/other 0f9e594 Sun May 20 01:01:01 2007 -0700 1ad887b Sun May 20 01:01:01 2007 -0700 cde7188 Sun May 20 01:01:01 2007 -0700 51af1c0 Sun May 20 01:01:01 2007 -0700 0e080e8 Tue Aug 12 11:51:19 2014 -0700 77ce973 Fri May 20 01:01:01 2011 -0700 --- Reachable from origin/other 4.

If so, and assuming that it's the dates that are throwing Git off, is there a way to tell Git to not care about the dates, or to care less than it does?

Problem with Git rev-list output
I'm seeing some oddity in one of my repositories where the root commit is being output in 'rev-list' even when I pass in a reference that should exclude it from being output. I've attempted to reproduce the issue in a test environment but so far have failed at that. Problem details below as best as I can capture them. Seeing the issue with versions of git from 1.7 to 2.1.
