-# `gulp.tree(options)`
+# tree()
 
-Returns the tree of tasks. Inherited from [undertaker]. See the [undertaker docs for this function](https://github.com/phated/undertaker#treeoptions--object).
+Fetches the current task dependency tree - in the rare case that it is needed.
 
-## options
-Type: `Object`
+Generally, `tree()` won't be used by gulp consumers, but it is exposed so the CLI can show the dependency graph of the tasks defined in a gulpfile.
 
-Options to pass to [undertaker].
+## Usage
 
-### options.deep
-Type: `Boolean`
+Example gulpfile:
+```js
 
-Default: `false`
+const { series, parallel } = require('gulp');
 
-If set to `true` whole tree should be returned.
+function one(cb) {
+  // body omitted
+  cb();
+}
 
-## Example gulpfile
+function two(cb) {
+  // body omitted
+  cb();
+}
 
-```js
-gulp.task('one', function(done) {
-  // do stuff
-  done();
-});
-
-gulp.task('two', function(done) {
-  // do stuff
-  done();
-});
-
-gulp.task('three', function(done) {
-  // do stuff
-  done();
-});
-
-gulp.task('four', gulp.series('one', 'two'));
-
-gulp.task('five',
-  gulp.series('four',
-    gulp.parallel('three', function(done) {
-      // do more stuff
-      done();
-    })
-  )
+function three(cb) {
+  // body omitted
+  cb();
+}
+
+const four = series(one, two);
+
+const five = series(four,
+  parallel(three, function(cb) {
+    // Body omitted
+    cb();
+  })
 );
+
+module.exports = { one, two, three, four, five };
+```
+
+Output for `tree()`:
+```js
+{
+  label: 'Tasks',
+  nodes: [ 'one', 'two', 'three', 'four', 'five' ]
+}
 ```
 
-## Example tree output
 
+Output for `tree({ deep: true })`:
 ```js
-gulp.tree()
-
-// output: [ 'one', 'two', 'three', 'four', 'five' ]
-
-gulp.tree({ deep: true })

+### Parameters
+
+| parameter | type | note |
+|:--------------:|------:|--------|
+| options | object | Detailed in [Options][options-section] below. |
+
+### Returns
+
+An object detailing the tree of registered tasks - containing nested objects with `'label'` and `'nodes'` properties (which is [archy][archy-external] compatible).
+
+Each object may have a `type` property that can be used to determine if the node is a `task` or `function`.
+
+Each object may have a `branch` property that - when `true` - indicates the node was created using `series()` or `parallel()`.
+
+### Options
+
+| name | type | default | note |
+|:-------:|:-------:|------------|--------|
+| deep | boolean | false | If true, the entire tree will be returned. When false, only top level tasks will be returned. |
