As given in the article, it's also the most annoying bash diagram ever...it needs an explanation of what the 7 different colors of arrows mean. All that was given is:
> It shows which scripts bash decides to run from the top, based on decisions made about the context bash is running in (which decides the colour to follow).
> So if you are in a local (non-remote), non-login, interactive shell (eg when you run bash itself from the command line), you are on the ‘green’ line [...]
With a bit of Googling I believe I found the origin of that diagram:

The author there explains how the colors work:
> Fortunately, I’ve read the man pages for you, and drawn a pretty diagram. To read it, pick your shell, whether it's a login shell, whether it's interactive, and follow the same colour through the diagram. When the arrows split out to multiple files, it means that the shell will try to read each one in turn (working left to right), and will use the first one it can read
