AFAICS from your graph there are exactly 13 commits that are part of fire1, 
but not part of v.1.5 (from the bottom of the graph):
- "fire 1       modified: main.c"
- The 8 commits on a parallel branch leading towards origin/fire1
- The origin/fire1 merge
- The 4th last commit: "Merge branch 'master' into fire1"
- The 3rd last commit: "modified: main.c"
- The very last commit: fire1
