It would be better if you use -------- lines to show the split and then use the solid lines to show the Bitcoin tree, because those are forks of the original coin and they are Alt coins now and not part of the original chain anymore. 
People should see a clear difference between the real Bitcoin and all the other cheap knockoff coins in the tree. You do not want to spoil the original DNA of the real Bitcoin with the Wannabe Coins.

Wow, that's some nice information you have gotten for us. So are all these forks performing the functions they claimed they were to provide? That's open for another discussion another day. Anyways you've done a great job for the compilation. Keep it up.
That's an awesome Bitcoin Family Tree! Thanks, man!
Thank you for sharing.

Wow, this is very helpful post.
Anyway this illustrate how many forks Bitcoin have. It also shows you how many people are envious with Bitcoin. Besides Bitcoin cash for me all fork that was made are trash (some may disagree). To be honest for me people should just stop forking Bitcoin. More likely than not people will always look for the original.

Whoa, thanks a lot! Another page worthy of a bookmark.http://mapofcoins.com/bitcoin

I'm going to draw something like an evolutionary chart based on that (updated version) if I got the time and "motivation", because it's really a nice idea.
I've expected that there's a lot of past (repository) forks but, I didn't expect that there's already 667 forks in total just from start to Sept 2015.
Add today's shitforks and we will get 19,384 as displayed in Github, minus the "unadvertised" forks: ±3000, maybe?
There's too much unnecessary forks included (mostly those joke, cashgrabs or both like Bitcoin God & Pizza shouldn't be here), while the old forks like Litecoin aren't.
Can you add the forks from the older blocks prior to Bitcoin Cash? There are a lot of forks behind that.

I think the main intention of this thread is to keep track of hardforked coins, ie. alts that share a blockchain history with Bitcoin. Litecoin doesn't quite fit that bill, I'm afraid. I personally find it delightful to see the absurdity of all these shitforks gathered in one place.
This looks like a "Phylogenetic tree", the Evolution of Cryptocurrency 
In this case, Bitcoin is an Aligator, still surviving without any major changes to its design.
I hope someone can make a "graphical version" of this.

Lots of bits of bitcoin names that want to fall the popularity of bitcoin. Nowadays many people still believe in the existence of bitcoin at a higher price than other bitcoins that are called bitcoins. Gradually bitcoin can become a legend in the crypto world until the end of the apocalypse.

Actually, forks are the natural way of upgrading decentralized immutable systems, exactly like in biological evolution. So all this is very positive. Forks are like genetic mutations: out of the mother species come two or several daughter species. They compete, and some survive, some find different eco systems. Much better than centralized collectivist decision techniques like voting.
It really is overkill, it has and is destroying Bitcoin as everybody just jumps to new alts hoping to get rich very quickly. Hey ho, seems like to dream of decentralisation is gone.
