We used to describe commit using commit ancestry (i.e. finding the place where a "wanted" commit sits in the commit ancestry graph). Now we are extending it to describe an object by finding the place where it sits in the graph that shows object reachability relation, but saying "graph" without saying "graph over what" is probably not descriptive enough for most readers.
