This feature is a non-feature - it removes the paging code.
This is to focus the CLI tool on generating the graph, not on interaction.
For interactive use, see git-igitt.

ivanquero@github provided a homebrew formula for git-graph
See Homebrew/homebrew-core#210627
The git-graph command line tool should be kept simple.
Other applications, like less, does a better job
at paging long outputs.

I am not 100% happy with removing the pager, particularly because there is a lack of tools that can be used as a replacement on Windows. But I will not oppose the change.

It might be reasonable to hold off on merging this until we're sure the next release will be a major version bump, not a minor or patch bump, e.g. when we refactor the repo layout and/or rename the binaries.

As far as I can tell, every feature the pager has today is present in less. Did I overlook something?

I normally use less from GnuWin when on Windows.
There is also a chocolatey package less.
