181 * One property of the commit being searched for is that every commit reachable
182 * from the base commit is reachable from the commits in the starting list only
183 * via paths that include the base commit.
185 * This algorithm uses a conservation of mass approach to find the base commit.
187 * We start by injecting one unit of mass into the graph at each
188 * of the commits in the starting list. Injecting mass into a commit
189 * is achieved by adding to its pending mass counter and, if it is not already
190 * enqueued, enqueuing the commit in a list of pending commits, in latest
191 * commit date first order.
193 * The algorithm then preceeds to visit each commit in the pending queue.
194 * Upon each visit, the pending mass is added to the mass already seen for that
195 * commit and then divided into N equal portions, where N is the number of
196 * parents of the commit being visited. The divided portions are then injected
197 * into each of the parents.
199 * The algorithm continues until we discover a commit which has seen all the
200 * mass originally injected or until we run out of things to do.
202 * If we find a commit that has seen all the original mass, we have found
203 * the common base of all the commits in the starting list.
205 * The algorithm does _not_ depend on accurate timestamps for correct operation.
206 * However, reasonably sane (e.g. non-random) timestamps are required in order
207 * to prevent an exponential performance characteristic. The occasional
208 * timestamp inaccuracy will not dramatically affect performance but may
209 * result in more nodes being processed than strictly necessary.
211 * This procedure sets *boundary to the address of the base commit. It returns
212 * non-zero if, and only if, there was a problem parsing one of the
213 * commits discovered during the traversal.
