How is git commit sha1 formed

Ok, I geeked out, and this is probably more information than you need. But it completely answers the question. Sorry. ☺

Locally, I'm at this commit:

$ git show
commit d6cd1e2bd19e03a81132a23b2025920577f84e37
Author: jnthn <jnthn@jnthn.net>
Date:   Sun Apr 15 16:35:03 2012 +0200

When I added FIRST/NEXT/LAST, it was idiomatic but not quite so fast. This makes it faster. Another little bit of masak++'s program.

SpotCast for Spotify

Introducing SpotCast by @jazzychad

"It's like Turntable.fm for Spotify!"

DJ your Spotify or listen to other users' stations!

As a weekend hack project, I have created a little app for Mac OS 10.6+ that runs up in the status bar and listens to other users' songs and what they are playing. You can "Listen With..." another person and your Spotify will automatically play what they are playing. It's like listening to a radio station DJ'd by your friend!

How to simplify the graph produced by git log --graph

Ideas for improvements to git log --graph

I will maybe someday get around to dusting off my C and making these changes myself unless someone else does it first.

Make the graph for --topo-order less wiggly

Imagine a long-running development branch periodically merges from master. The git log --graph --all --topo-order is not as simple as it could be, as of git version 1.7.10.4.

It doesn't seem like a big deal in this example, but when you're trying to follow the history trails in ASCII and you've got several different branches displayed at once, it gets difficult quickly.
