The common commit were marked with a minus sign (-), but that is
usually interpreted as something less or substracted. Use natural
equal sign (=). Commits that are not in upstream were marked with plus
sign (+) but a question mark (?) is visually a litle more striking
(erect) in context where all other signs are "flat". It also helps
visually impared to see difference between (* ... ?) as opposed to
similar signs (* ... +).
