Who uses branch graph view in git?

Question

git

What programs do you use?
For example, in giggle I don’t really understand which color corresponds to which branch.
Where can I read the explanation? Or explain to me right here.

Answer 1

Interesting question... Judging by the giggle code, the color selection cycles through the list when a new branch point is found. Colors are selected from "butter", "orange", "chocolate", chameleon", "sky blue", "plum", "scarlet red" and according to some condition "aluminum" from three color schemes - bright, moderate and dark It is possible that this order of colors is set somewhere else, but I'm not sure.

Answer 2

I won’t say about giggle, I didn’t use it, but I’ll answer the first part of the question.
I actively use SmartGit. It has two algorithms for highlighting branches.
The first one is similar to the one described by Flanker72 (in terms of branch points), and the second one highlights commits that can be merged, and shades the rest.
