            Bug ID: 243731
           Summary: webkitscmpy/program/branch.py:116 (branch_point) is
                    slow with many commits
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

This walks through each ancestor, finding the branches for each (which is itself slow, taking around 3s per branch locally, as `git branch -a --contains refish` has to walk each and every ref, but less obvious how to speed up).

We can often make a conservative first guess, which means we can then bisect the ancestors to find the appropriate branch point.
