1. That's obviously a *lot* easier than 9f4e5ac4f0a3 and 13cf8da225ce

2. 35912 and 35780 are obviously related to each other in a certain way. I 
can tell just buy glancing that 35912 is a little over 100 commits after 
35780. And I can immediately tell that they're both *far* newer than, say, 
243. And far older than, say, 54928. Try doing that with hashes.
