Rather than adding the line_prefix_length variable, the next patch
will use options->output_prefix_length directly.

I prefer gratuitous braces, particularly when conditionals are nested
as they are here. It helps later when maintaining the code if someone
wants to add a debug statement or comment out a line.

I'll remove braces from single line conditionals to keep with the
existing conventions.

Ahh, this is because the calculations go haywire when the number of
columns is small. I briefly mentioned it here:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/193694/focus=193744

graph_width actually can have a negative value under certain
conditions, and this check compensates for that edge case. My earlier
patches took a less conservative approach and adjusted the
calculations so that the value of graph_width would be at least 6, but
it caused several tests to regress. Since the intention of the
original graph_width calculation was place a lower bound of 6 on its
value, I simply enforce that here without affecting the general cases,
which will remain unmodified in order to prevent test regressions.

If options->stat_graph_width is specified, it should always limit the
value of graph_width, correct? Since (1) is the last test, it can only
decrease the value of graph_width, which would already be limited by
the total width.

I just noticed that name_width isn't being limited to stat_name_width,
if it is specified. I'll add a check for that.

Thanks, I'll add these.
