While date is usually ordered and thus is good candidate to binary
search, it is not guaranted.

And as you are not looking for exact date but just one before, you will
need to bother with all 20 (actually even 21).

Still update-to-date is rare as well as it happen more often for later
revision then for older. Taking bunch of let say 100 revs, should be ok.

I'm more interesting for update-to-rev for main and date in externals.
Still too rare ...
