tig comes near it, but it only linerarises the branches, so you can't see
where there was a mergepoint/fork. I'd really like these visuallization of
the commit graph in some of the text viewers. I normally don't care about
the _full_ commit text, only if I visually understand what's happening I'm
looking at the individual commits and the patches.
 If you turn on the revision graph visualisation (press 'g' whil in main 
 view) then tig will show merges and forks ... looks a little like your 
 diagram above in fact.
