Using the real topology in a useful way is actually pretty hard. It's
quite easy to throw the output of "git log --graph --oneline ..." to the
user, but as soon as the rebase deals with more than a handfull of
commits, we'd want to simplify the history to show something
understandable to the user (which by definition should be a beginner if
he uses ggit), like replacing long sequences of commits with "..." or
so. That is hard to get right.
