Subject: [PATCH v11 7/7] graph: add --[no-]graph-indent and log.graphIndent
Date: Mon, 13 Jul 2026 18:44:04 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260713-ps-pre-commit-indent-v11-7-dcb65bc4ba99@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260713-ps-pre-commit-indent-v11-0-dcb65bc4ba99@gmail.com>

Some users may prefer to not have graph indentation.

Add "log.graphIndent" config variable to graph_read_config() to read the
default preference. By default is graph indentation is true.

Add --graph-indent and --no-graph-indent options to overwrite the
default preference.
