Hi
Is there a nice way to visualize the history of Monticello repository? In particular, I would like to be able to quickly identify the presence of branching/merging.

Consider the screenshot above. Without a graphical visualizer, it is hard to tell that LanguageOfLanguages-NC.42.mcz and LanguageOfLanguages-jamie.42.mcz branched out from LanguageOfLanguages-jamie.41.mcz. Their names might hint that they do (because of the "42") but that isn't always reliable.
Additionally, without a graphical visualizer, it is also impossible to tell that I did a merge in LanguageOfLanguages-NC.50.mcz unless I look at the commit message and check the ancestors.
If no graphical visualizer exists, how do Smalltalkers normally check for branching/merging?
Thanks!
