Arrow direction

[A11Might]

why arrow direction is from new commit to old, it's the reverse to command git commit. can i change it by some parameter.

@A11Might The purpose of arrows in Git DAG are to identify parent/child relationships between nodes (commits). The arrows aren't supposed to represent the flow of time.

For that reason the arrows always point from child commit to its parent(s). You can use the --reverse flag on any git-sim command to reverse the direction of the whole diagram, but arrows will still always go from child commit to its parent(s), by design.

Closing this since this is operating by design.

(Edited my previous comment - I meant to say arrows always point from child commit to its parent(s).
