As to the contents, I did not understand this part. +Notes on interpretation: + +'╬' (or variants thereof, like ╪) is meant to be a "path bridge", i.e. +traversal is only "allowed" horizontal OR vertical direction. + +Branching: +C D E F G +╠═╬═╩═╩═╝ A->{C,E,F,G} and B->D. +A B So the horizontal line bridge goes over the vertical road between B and D and these two will not get connection to anything else. That part I understand. (1) Why then is that horizontal bridge connected to E, F and G? Do pluses and inverted Ts have different meaning? What about the sideway T between A and C? (2) If you want to express D is merge between A and B, and C, E, F, G are independent children of A, how would you write it? Did you mean "Connection with three legs (T, inverted T, sideways T) mean all sides are connected, connection with four legs (+) mean horizontal and vertical are independent and disconnected"? -- 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
