What about making it even more terse so it's even easier to visually
scan: (mainly thinking that fast-forwarding is so common it could be
considered the "default")

Also, perhaps the trailing notes (fast forward, refused, etc.) should
be significantly indented to the right to stand out even further from
branch names that might be quite long.
