-    # - mark a and b with different colors
+    # - mark a and b with different sides
+    # - if a parent's children are all on the same side, the parent is
+    #   on that side, otherwise it is on no side
     # - walk the graph in topological order with the help of a heap;
-    #   for each revision r:
-    #     - if r has only one color, we want to return it
-    #     - add colors[r] to its parents
-    #
-    # We keep track of the number of revisions in the heap that
-    # we may be interested in.  We stop walking the graph as soon
-    # as this number reaches 0.
+    #   - add unseen parents to side map
+    #   - clear side of any parent that has children on different sides
+    #   - track number of unvisited nodes that might still be on a side
+    #   - quit when interesting nodes is zero
