I assume that get_revisions should return the latest commits - sorted by date of commit (new commits first, old commits last) ... right now it's sorting on commit id? For me this is unexpected... repo.log(path=key) already returns the commits in sorted order...

Fix something like this:

def get_revisions(self, key): """ returns a list with all revisions at which key was changed. Revision Numbers are integers starting at 1.

"""
repo = Repo(self.repo_path)
crevs = [r.id for r in repo.log(path=key)]
# crevs.sort(reverse=True)
return crevs[1:] # cut off the head revision-number

Your assumption is correct. It should return commit-ids sorted with new commits first and old commits last. Thank you for reporting.
