    It's related to commits actually having a parent-child structure (forming a graph) and timestamps (commit/author) being metadata. So commits 1->2->3->4 could be modified to have timestamps 1->3->2->4. I know GitHub prefers sorting with author over commit date, but don't know how topology is handled.

It's just that the last couple dozen commits, to me, looked like commits had been created in chronological order, so that topological order == chronological order. > I know GitHub prefers sorting with author over commit date, but don't know how topology is handled. Commits are usually sorted topologically.
