But in my situaltion commit is marked as new '>'

Here is my main 'dev' branch

Here you can see that '92103b2d Display only tick for user experience' commit is marked as new

If I do explicite comarison of a0e338cb and 92103b2d, then we see that is marked as '='

git range-diff a0e338cb...92103b2d
-:  -------- > 1:  20bf7186 Added refs to download document and sandbox link for agreement
-:  -------- > 2:  d96c45e4 Use production and test modes in parallel
-:  -------- > 3:  129c972d Clean forms when load o reload the page
-:  -------- > 4:  2d756923 Added ref to 'Podio'
-:  -------- > 5:  5f741628 Gen podio ref using document or agreement info
-:  -------- > 6:  da78b64f Display disabled element title
1:  a0e338cb = 7:  92103b2d Display only tick for user experience

if I do range-diff between branches dev...xtucha/dev
git range-diff 8fd53c7d...ec655271
-:  -------- > 1:  92103b2d Display only tick for user experience
1:  d192d9a7 = 2:  bbca694b Added library 'materialize' and facelifted the contractor tabl
2:  3da9e49c = 3:  a6085d95 'Save/sync' button is active always

We again see 'Display only tick for user experience' commit as new


I think problem arise because git does not see that all three commits:
   
| | o da78b64f Display disabled element title
| o ed3f3026 Invert data to show provider as 'true' value
o 0cb280f5 Do not export test data

have same fork-point  "ed3f3026 Invert data to show provider as 'true' value"


Probably because git merge-base get analyzed only left branch and not right:
$ git merge-base ec655271 8fd53c7d
0cb280f544113926e1059568811f99c311489d4c





I expect that end of out should look like this:

| |  |
| |  * da78b64f Display disabled element title
| * |   0cb280f5 Do not export test data
| |  |
........
