Why on all images that show queue of commits in Pro Git book arrows point in the opposite direction?
It’s to show the parent relationship. In Git, a particular commit knows about its parent(s), but not necessarily about its children. (Obviously that information can be derived based on the parent links, but I don’t think it’s stored directly in the commit object.)
