Git’s pull output has been explained here fairly well. In spite of this I’m still unsure exactly what the text graph relates to.

For example:

git diff --stat master HEAD^

Outputs (truncated):

Site/index.php | 118 ++--

While the number of lines modified is clearly displayed as 118, the text graph is a little harder to interpret.

Could this relate to the ratio of added and removed lines?

    Yes it’s the ratio of added and removed lines.
