“…To help understand Git DAGs, git log [1] provides a graphical representation in a console environment. Many Git GUI clients, such as Sourcetree [8], GitKraken [4] [72], a web-based tool that uses the conversion of a DAG to merge trees. Linvis also proposed visualization to represent the hierarchy of merged trees.…”

“…4d), stems corresponding to merged branches, or merged PRs (R1). LinVis [72] proposed a similar approach that grouped parents into a hierarchical structure and presented the structure in Merge-Tree. However, this prior work focused mainly on analyzing the details of CSM-sources (i.e., parent commits) in the master branch and presenting a visual representation of the hierarchy.…”

Fig. 1. Githru system. (a) The Global Temporal Filter shows commit trends by number of commits and CLOC (changed lines of code). (b) The Clustering Step controls the granularity of clustering. (c) The stem graph visualizes a cluster information of each commit at a single glance. (d) The Grouped Summary View provides a rough summary of the selected clusters. (e) A file icicle tree allows users to interactively observe the modified file hierarchy. (f) The commit list shows all the commits in a selected cluster. (g) Comparison View enables a comparison between selected groups.

“…Various reconstruction methods of DAGs have been proposed to solve the problem of high complexity. Wilde proposed Linvis [72], a web-based tool that uses the conversion of a DAG to merge trees. Linvis also proposed visualization to represent the hierarchy of merged trees.…”
