[PATCH 1/1] Fix --merge-order unit test breaks introduced by 6c88be169881c9223532796bd225e79afaa115e1

[PATCH 1/1] Fix --merge-order unit test breaks introduced by 6c88be169881c9223532796bd225e79afaa115e1

[Jon Seymour]

The sensible cleanup of the in-memory storage order of commit parents broke the --merge-order
code which was dependent on the previous behaviour of parse_commit().

This patch restores the correctness --merge-order behaviour by taking account of the
new behaviour of parse_commit.
