it's a remote machine with wayland only.
what would `gitk --all show` tell us? (never used it before)
people at #git tell me to use `git log --all`... and there is something:

```sh
portage@frostbite /var/tmp/portage/net-mail/isync-9999/work/isync-9999 $ git --no-pager log --all

    build: also consider builds off of git with `git clone --depth 1`

    one case where this could happen is a shallow clone, purely for build
    purposes. in source based distros, like gentoo, setting depth of the
    clone to 1, globally, is a common configuration. this patch avoids that
    those builds fail.

```sh
portage@frostbite /var/tmp/portage/net-mail/isync-9999/work/isync-9999 $ cat .git/refs/git-r3/HEAD
884413b48871361cf6c0cfa41d01c22ed1ec8d30
```

git-r3 is poratge's doing. (portage is the package manager in gentoo).
