What did you do before the bug happened? (Steps to reproduce your issue)
I called `git lg` command to display git graph log in my terminal. The 
command is defined in my
general gitconfig file as follows:

# double liner with hash, time, branches and tags on first line and the 
message on second
lg = "!f() { num=15; if [ \"$1\" != \"\" ] && ( echo \"$1\" | grep -q 
\"^[0-9]\\\\+\\$\" ) ; then num=\"$1\" ; shift ; fi ; [ $num -eq 0 ] && 
num=999999999 ; git \"$@\" log -n \"$num\" --graph --abbrev-commit 
--decorate --format=format:'%C(bold blue)%h%C(reset) - %C(bold 
cyan)%aD%C(reset) %C(bold green)(%ar)%C(reset)%C(bold 
yellow)%d%C(reset)%n'' %C(white)%s%C(reset)' --all; }; f"

What did you expect to happen? (Expected behavior)
I expected to see git graph log with the project commits.

What happened instead? (Actual behavior)
On top of the project commits were added these four pseudo-commits made 
by some Git component(s).

* f7b611ce - Wed, 12 Aug 2026 09:26:03 +0200 (5 hours ago)
|  Notes added by 'git notes append' - rewrite-analytics
* 1a7605bb - Wed, 12 Aug 2026 09:26:03 +0200 (5 hours ago)

      chatter: initialize notes ref - chatter

They are not graphically connected with the actual commits, they just 
sit there over them. No other graphical
tool (Sublime Merge, IntelliJ Idea) displays them.
Originally, when I opened the project, only the first (chronologically) 
commit (by chatter) appeared,
and those by rewrite-analytics seem to be added with actual commits in 
branches, each for one branch.
Sometimes after more commits or merges they disappear and after removing 
(`git reset --hard`) those new
commits/merges they re-appear (I played with it a little).
They are not always on top, sometimes when a new commit in a branch is 
made it gets on top and these
pseudo-commits sit beside (to the right) of the graph log, still 
unconnected.

What's different between what you expected and what actually happened?
Those pseudo-commits.

Anything else you want to add: The terminal is tmux running on 
mate-terminal.
