Not necessarily.  You might post-process the information to say "files
named  x/dir1/dir2/thing were integrated to y/dir1/dir2/thing means that
there is a relationship from x -> y."

It doesn't take much processing to build up a table of relationships, which
can be fed to a tool such as "Graphviz". The first draft will be convoluted
and dense, but you'll weed out the extraneous stuff (renames within the same
tree are boring) and end up with a good approach for your needs.

And you don't have to do any ugly graphical programming, at least not directly!
