Your hunch is correct, and it should be C6, that's why it was changed: https://github.com/progit/progit2/blob/master/book/03-git-branching/images/basic-merging-2.png I do not know why it is still displayed incorrectly on https://git-scm.com/, but your best bet would be to report this as a bug: https://github.com/git/git-scm.com/issues But make sure first that there is not another ticket opened for the same bug!
