[JENKINS-5245] git recent changes doesn't follow reverse chronological order

The recent changes for a project does not follow the reverse chronological order like the subversion plugin does or "git log" on the command line.

If I have changes c1, c2 in build 1 and c3, c4 in build 2, it will show:

#2

c3

c4

#1

c1

c2

git log will show c4 c3 c2 c1 so it's confusing when you're trying to match the two outputs.

versions:

git plugin 0.8

hudson 1.340
