Fix quadratic performance in rewrite_one.

angavrilov · gitster · commit fce87ae53883 · 2008-07-13T13:46:56.000-07:00
Parent commits are usually older than their children. Thus,
on each iteration of the loop in rewrite_one, add_parents_to_list
traverses all commits previously processed by the loop.
It performs very poorly in case of very long rewrite chains.
