Thanks. Stolee and I worked a little on revising this last week, and I
think that the current log message is more along these lines. Here's
what we wrote:

    pack-bitmap-write: fill bitmap with commit history

    The current implementation of bitmap_writer_build() creates a
    reachability bitmap for every walked commit. After computing a bitmap
    for a commit, those bits are pushed to an in-progress bitmap for its
    children.

    fill_bitmap_commit() assumes the bits corresponding to objects
    reachable from the parents of a commit are already set. This means that
    when visiting a new commit, we only have to walk the objects reachable
    between it and any of its parents.

    A future change to bitmap_writer_build() will relax this condition so
    not all parents have their reachable objects set in the in-progress
    bitmap. Prepare for that by having 'fill_bitmap_commit()' walk
    parents until reaching commits whose bits are already set. Then, walk
    the trees for these commits as well.

    This has no functional change with the current implementation of
    bitmap_writer_build().

Sure. Would you find a comment like that more helpful above
'fill_bitmap_commit()', or above the declaration of 'queue' (in
'bitmap_writer_build()') itself?

Thanks,
Taylor
