About two weeks ago I committed jca's LLVM 15 diff to a local branch
in my OpenBSD src repository, and I have performed a number of
"got merge master" commits since.  The git log --graph output looks
like two spaghettis who love each other very much. ;-)

When I use got or tog log -b to show the merged commits, the resultant
ordering is... strange.

$ got log -s
2023-02-14 llvm15  merge refs/heads/master into refs/heads/llvm15
2023-02-13 b433205 merge refs/heads/master into refs/heads/llvm15
2023-02-12 63a41c1 merge refs/heads/master into refs/heads/llvm15
2023-02-09 7c80d1d merge refs/heads/master into refs/heads/llvm15
2023-02-03 6e9f183 merge refs/heads/master into refs/heads/llvm15
2023-02-02 c2ad0c1 llvm: update to 15.0.7
[...]

Git puts all the commits that were brought in by the lastest merge
between the two merge commits:

By contrast, got produces a history I can't make head or tail of:

The commits are all there, but the order is baffling.
