Pretty git branch graphs

Question

I\'ve seen some books and articles have some really pretty looking graphs of git branches and commits. How can I make high-quality printable images of git history?

Answer 1

git -c core.pager='less -SRF' log --oneline --graph --decorate

This is my terminal variation, similar to many answers here. I like to adjust the flags passed to less to prevent word wrapping.

I set this to an alias for quick access since the command is a bit cumbersome.
