   6  * The graph API is used to draw a text-based representation of the commit
   7  * history. The API generates the graph in a line-by-line fashion.
   8  *
   9  * Calling sequence
  10  * ----------------
  11  *
  12  * - Create a `struct git_graph` by calling `graph_init()`.  When using the
  13  *   revision walking API, this is done automatically by `setup_revisions()` if
  14  *   the '--graph' option is supplied.
  15  *
  16  * - Use the revision walking API to walk through a group of contiguous commits.
  17  *   The `get_revision()` function automatically calls `graph_update()` each time
  18  *   it is invoked.
  19  *
  20  * - For each commit, call `graph_next_line()` repeatedly, until
  21  *   `graph_is_commit_finished()` returns non-zero.  Each call to
  22  *   `graph_next_line()` will output a single line of the graph.  The resulting
  23  *   lines will not contain any newlines.  `graph_next_line()` returns 1 if the
  24  *   resulting line contains the current commit, or 0 if this is merely a line
  25  *   needed to adjust the graph before or after the current commit.  This return
  26  *   value can be used to determine where to print the commit summary information
  27  *   alongside the graph output.
  28  *
  29  * Limitations
  30  * -----------
  31  * - Check the graph_update() function for its limitations.
  32  *
  33  * - The graph API does not currently support reverse commit ordering.  In
  34  *   order to implement reverse ordering, the graphing API needs an
  35  *   (efficient) mechanism to find the children of a commit.
  36  *
  37  * Sample usage
  38  * ------------
  39  *
  40  * ------------
  41  * struct commit *commit;
  42  * struct git_graph *graph = graph_init(opts);
  43  *
  44  * while ((commit = get_revision(opts)) != NULL) {
  45  *      while (!graph_is_commit_finished(graph))
  46  *      {
  47  *              struct strbuf sb;
  48  *              int is_commit_line;
  49  *
  50  *              strbuf_init(&sb, 0);
  51  *              is_commit_line = graph_next_line(graph, &sb);
  52  *              fputs(sb.buf, stdout);
  53  *
  54  *              if (is_commit_line)
  55  *                      log_tree_commit(opts, commit);
  56  *              else
  57  *                      putchar(opts->diffopt.line_termination);
  58  *      }
  59  * }
  60  * ------------
  61  * Sample output
  62  * -------------
  63  *
  64  * The following is an example of the output from the graph API.  This output does
  65  * not include any commit summary information--callers are responsible for
  66  * outputting that information, if desired.
