I was relying on RevSort#COMMIT_TIME_DESC to report RevCommits always in
descending order, however this is not the case for certain repositories,
i.e. the commit time of a parent may be more recent than the entry's
commit time itself (does anyone know why that can happen?). IMHO this
behavior should be documented in the javadocs.
