Summary

  • Add positional argument to scope the graph to specific branches
  • When multiple refspecs are given, the graph is bounded by their merge-base at the bottom and the branch tips at the top
  • A single refspec with an upstream tracking branch auto-detects the fork point
  • No changes to default behavior when no refspecs are specified

Example

$ git-graph master A B
 ○<──┐  cf43da7 (HEAD -> master) Merge branch A into master
 ○<┐ │  ddcfb2d Merge branch B into master
 │ ● │  bcfb676 (B) ...
 │ │ ●  019ae78 (A) ...
 ├─┴─┘
 ○      9cca380 Merge branch X into master

Lazygit integration

git:
  branchLogCmd: "git-graph --color always {{branchName}}"

Closes #55

Allow passing branch names or refspecs as positional arguments
to scope the graph visualization to only the relevant subgraph.

When multiple refspecs are given, the graph is bounded by their
merge-base at the bottom. A single refspec with an upstream
tracking branch auto-detects the fork point.

Closes git-bahn#55
