When I saw the bug on my machine, I tracked the issue down to a call to
parse_commit_in_graph() that skipped the graph check since
core_commit_graph was not set. The call stack from this call is as follows:
* lookup_commit_or_die()
* lookup_commit_reference()
* lookup_commit_reference_gently()
* parse_object()
* parse_object_buffer()
* parse_commit_in_graph() [as introduced in PATCH 01/10]

I didn't want to introduce commits in an order that led to a commit
failing tests, but if you drop the change to builtin/merge.c from this
series, the tip commit will fail this test with "BUG: bad generation skip".
The reason for this failure is that commits/5 is loaded from HEAD from
the object database, so its generation is marked as
GENERATION_NUMBER_INFINITY, and the commit is marked as parsed. Later,
the commit at merges/3 is loaded from the graph with generation 4. This
triggers the BUG statement in paint_down_to_common(). That is why it is
important to check a fast-forward merge.
In the 'graph_git_behavior' steps of t5318-commit-graph.sh, we were
already testing 'git merge-base' to check the commit walk logic.
Thanks,
