You have multiple roots, just like we would show the histories like
this:

    *     A
    |\
    | *   B
    | *   C (root)
    *    D
    *    E (another root)

teaching the "graph" code to show the history like this:

    *     B
    *     C (root)
      * D
     /
    *   E (another root)

would be more beneficial than using --show-linear-break and chopping
the graph, wouldn't it?
