Yes I was going to ask about that, having been confused by
the graph once in a while.  You may want to consider using a
few other characters than the 4 you currently do (if indeed
that is the problem).

I started work on this last year, but it got pushed further and
further down my todo list.   Basically, there's extended characters
defined as part of ncurses for just this sort of "drawing" operation.

Yes, I think we need to go for something squarish like qgit and giggle.

With this rewrite I it could also be nice to allow the graph rendering
to be more incremental by changing the commit struct to point to the
parent commits. This will also enable support for moving the cursor to
the parent commit in the main view and calculate information like the
Follows/Preceeds in gitk.
