Meaning of TortoiseHg graph colors

Question

What is the logic of those lines and changeset points colors? Does TortoiseHg automatically assign a color to each named branch? In the same named branch, the lines don't have the same color of the changeset points (like purple points with blue lines), why?

Answer 1

I found out why the dots and lines have different colors:

• Dots follow the color of named branches
• Lines follow the color of anonymous branches

When an anonymous branch is created, the dots remain with the same color but the color of the line changes.
