Is it safe to assume that all commits in a cloned and then fetched/pulled repo will have the commits in the same order as the parent? Also, are "null commits", where there is a commit but no actual files commited (not sure what those are for!) counted too? (example: https://cgit.dyslexicfish.net/src/current/commit/?id=cb4ff25c8a40e6811f48f6ad03a0bf882404e9ac ) I'll never understand the nuances of operating day to day with git like you guys, so I'm grateful for the help and patience you have shown, especially when I come out with an idea that is basically dumb. Cheers, Jamie
