Here's another variant of this problem which your diff also fixes:

  cd repo.git
  tog log -c mybranch
-> tog now displays commits starting at 'mybranch'
  ^L
-> tog now displays commits starting at 'main' instead of 'mybranch'

Yes.  But now this happens:

  tog log -c 0.44
  ^L
  tog: bad object data
