Yeah. It is unclear from the lack of context, but this part shows the original state with some number of commits on the 'master' branch, and the illustrations that follow depict the evolution of histories starting from this state, yet they have one less commit on their 'master' branch (and they are not trying to say the master is reset to lose one commit), which is what "wasn't in line" in the log message means.

Looks correct to me.  Thanks.
