Ah, very good thinking---when I was following along your drafts to
bypass the revs.commits queue for reflog walking, I didn't think of
this one.  

Perhaps "!revs.commits && reflog_walk_empty(revs.reflog_info)" may
want to become a macro "walk_finished(&revs)" or something to
replace existing !revs.commits that is not accompanied by the check
on .reflog_info field?
