RevWalk#createCommit() will inspect the commit-graph file to find the
specified object's graph position and then return a new RevCommitCG
instance.
RevCommitGC is a RevCommit with an additional "pointer" (the position)
to the commit-graph, so it can load the headers and metadata from there
instead of the pack. This saves IO access in walks where the body is not
needed (i.e. #isRetainBody is false and #parseBody is not invoked).
RevWalk uses automatically the commit-graph if available, no action
needed from callers. The commit-graph is fetched on first access from
the reader (that internally can keep it loaded and reuse it between
walks).
The startup cost of reading the entire commit graph is small. After
testing, reading a commit-graph with 1 million commits takes less than
50ms. If we use RepositoryCache, it will not be initialized util the
commit-graph is rewritten.
