Please do not do reflowing of the text in the same patch as modifying the

As far as I can tell, this introduces a variable that is set (and is meant
to be set) only at a single place, namely, here, and used throughout the
rest of the function. But it invites later patches to mistakenly update
the variable. I do not see the merit of it.
If you wanted to have a symbolic name for (6+number_width), #define would
have served better.
Also as we see in the later part of the review, this name is probably way
too long to be useful. We need a shorter and sweeter name to call it.

Isn't this wrong? This is not a rhetoric question, iow, I am not
declaring that this is wrong --- I just cannot see why the above is a good
change, as I do not see a sound reasoning behind it.
When the user said "--stat-width=80", she means that the diffstat part
(name and bargraph) is to extend 80 places, and she does not expect it to
be reduced by the width of the ancestry graph. If the user wanted to clip
the entire width, she would have used COLUMNS=80 instead.
Am I missing something?

What is this about? reserved_character_count already knows about the
magic number 6 and here you have another magic number 6. How are they
related with each other?
In other words, shouldn't the added code be more like this?
if (graph_width < reserved_character_count - number_width)
graph_width = reserved_character_count - number_width;

Yikes. It took me three minutes to realize that the only thing you did in
this hunk was to move the "if stat-graph-width is set" logic down. Not
your fault, but this is one of the times I wish our diff generation logic
matched "corresponding" block of lines better.
