Sorry, I wasn't thinking. Of course the transitive closure function is
defined for digraphs: that's the only case where it's actually interesting.
sage: g=DiGraph({0:[1,2], 1:[3], 2:[5,6]})
sage: g.transitive_closure().adjacency_matrix()
[0 1 1 1 1 1]
[0 0 0 1 0 0]
[0 0 0 0 1 1]
[0 0 0 0 0 0]
[0 0 0 0 0 0]
[0 0 0 0 0 0]
The transitive closure function isn't very smart right now. It ought to
be sped up by looking at the strongly connected components (I don't know
if we already have a function to do that, though).
