Apply correct styling to root commit in graph

The root commit is special in that it has no parents. So we need to add a pipe that's headed for a commit
that doesn't actually exist i.e. the mythical empty tree commit. We're using the actual hash of that
pseudo-commit, but it's not being read anywhere.
