The final definition needs two conditions on the offset of a commit C for
every parent P:
1. committer_date(C) + offset(C) > committer_date(P) + offset(P)
2. offset(C) > offset(P)
Condition (1) will give us the performance benefits related to the
committer-date heuristic. Condition (2) will give us backwards-compatibility
with generation numbers.
