If you followed a strict policy of always merging topics to a "base" branch as your first parent, then never allowing fast forwards should allow a very easy-to-read history in gitk. The left-most line of commits would simply be a record of topics getting merged in, and would never contain any "non-base" commits. -Peff - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
