About:
GitGraph is a command-line utility that renders clear, readable commit graphs tailored to your specific branching model. It visualizes complex repository histories in a terminal-friendly format, making it easier to understand project evolution. The tool offers extensive customization to align graph output with team workflows and preferred branch structures.
Key Features:
  • Customizable branch models and graph layouts
  • Terminal-friendly ASCII and color output
  • Filters for branches, commits, and tags
  • Supports both shallow and deep repository histories
Use Cases:
  • Auditing pull request merge histories and branch lifecycles
  • Debugging complex Git workflows with multiple feature branches
  • Generating visual commit logs for team meetings and code reviews
Alternatives:
  • git log --graph – Built-in but less readable for complex histories and lacks customization
  • tig – More of a full-screen ncurses interface rather than a focused graph renderer
