Point the ordered log at the commit-graph hook
Without generation numbers, git can sort the log topologically only
after walking the whole history. On a 20,000-commit scratch repository
the graph and both commit-sort orders took the log page from 5 ms to
between 56 and 64 ms, and the split graph post-receive.commit-graph
writes brought all three back to 5 ms.
