Subject: Re: [PATCH] graph API: fix bug in graph_is_interesting()

From: Adam Simpkins <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 18 Aug 2009 19:34:33 -0700

Previously, graph_is_interesting() did not behave quite the same way as
the code in get_revision().  As a result, it would sometimes think
commits were uninteresting, even though get_revision() would return
them.  This resulted in incorrect lines in the graph output.

This change creates a get_commit_action() function, which
graph_is_interesting() and simplify_commit() both now use to determine
if a commit will be shown.  It is identical to the old simplify_commit()
behavior, except that it never calls rewrite_parents().

This problem was reported by Santi Béjar.  The following command
would exhibit the problem before, but now works correctly:

  git log --graph --simplify-by-decoration --oneline v1.6.3.3

Previously git graph did not display the output for this command
correctly between f29ac4f and 66996ec, among other places.
