Subject: [PATCH 2/3] name_rev: clarify when a new tip-name is assigned to a commit

From: Junio C Hamano <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 29 Aug 2012 14:17:23 -0700

In preparation for the later changes, restructure the logic a little
bit to separate how the code decides to use the new "tip" for naming
a particular commit, and what happens based on the decision.

Also re-indent and correct style of this function while we are at it.
