+/**
+ * The graph API is used to draw a text-based representation of the commit
+ * history. The API generates the graph in a line-by-line fashion.
+ *
+ * Calling sequence
+ * ----------------
+ *
+ * - Create a `struct git_graph` by calling `graph_init()`.  When using the
+ *   revision walking API, this is done automatically by `setup_revisions()` if
+ *   the '--graph' option is supplied.
+ *
+ * - Use the revision walking API to walk through a group of contiguous commits.
+ *   The `get_revision()` function automatically calls `graph_update()` each time
+ *   it is invoked.
+ *
+ * - For each commit, call `graph_next_line()` repeatedly, until
+ *   `graph_is_commit_finished()` returns non-zero.  Each call to
+ *   `graph_next_line()` will output a single line of the graph.  The resulting
+ *   lines will not contain any newlines.  `graph_next_line()` returns 1 if the
+ *   resulting line contains the current commit, or 0 if this is merely a line
+ *   needed to adjust the graph before or after the current commit.  This return
+ *   value can be used to determine where to print the commit summary information
+ *   alongside the graph output.
+ *
+ * Limitations
+ * -----------
+ * - Check the graph_update() function for its limitations.
+ *
+ * - The graph API does not currently support reverse commit ordering.  In
+ *   order to implement reverse ordering, the graphing API needs an
+ *   (efficient) mechanism to find the children of a commit.
+ *
+ * Sample usage
+ * ------------
+ *
+ * ------------
+ * struct commit *commit;
+ * struct git_graph *graph = graph_init(opts);
+ *
+ * while ((commit = get_revision(opts)) != NULL) {
+ * 	while (!graph_is_commit_finished(graph))
+ * 	{
+ * 		struct strbuf sb;
+ * 		int is_commit_line;
+ *
+ * 		strbuf_init(&sb, 0);
+ * 		is_commit_line = graph_next_line(graph, &sb);
+ * 		fputs(sb.buf, stdout);
+ *
+ * 		if (is_commit_line)
+ * 			log_tree_commit(opts, commit);
+ * 		else
+ * 			putchar(opts->diffopt.line_termination);
+ * 	}
+ * }
+ * ------------
+ * Sample output
+ * -------------
+ *
+ * The following is an example of the output from the graph API.  This output does
+ * not include any commit summary information--callers are responsible for
+ * outputting that information, if desired.
