We used to describe commit using commit ancestry (i.e. finding the
place where a "wanted" commit sits in the commit ancestry graph).
Now we are extending it to describe an object by finding the place
where it sits in the graph that shows object reachability relation,
but saying "graph" without saying "graph over what" is probably not
descriptive enough for most readers.
