I see! So basically my parser needs to also start tracking merges,
except --follow seems to be sort of odd with those as well (though
I think maybe it's changed in some fairly recent git version).

(Note: I didn't include --follow here as it filtered the --graph
output in a strange way, including dropping the merge commitswhich was
confusing to me.)

I think you need to give -c or --cc or something similar to see merges in
--follow, but the man pages are not entirely clear to me.
