This is a little hard to explain with text, but I'll do my best, and you try to keep up; if something isn't clear at first, don't hesitate to ask, and I'll try to clarify.

When TortoiseGit has one branch it looks approximately like this:

o
|
o <-- a commit sign
|
x

When I split my work into a new branch, it looks like this:

o
|
o--o
|
x

when I split, from the master to another new branch it looks like this:

o--o
|
o--o
|
x

Is there a way for every new branch that I make, and work on, to have its own "line" ... what I mean:

o-----o
|
o--o
|
x

so they don't "vertically overlap". So that every branch, has its own vertical line I can follow (for some reason this looks rather confusing to me, the way it's done now). Do any other Git clients for Windows do this differently ?
