Yes, and we use mermaid-js for representing upgrade paths for a specific
type of software (OpenShift operators):
https://olm.operatorframework.io/docs/contribution-guidelines/upgrade-graphs/

(Quick ref: Each operator knows which previous version(s) it can upgrade
directly from. A 'channel' is a named version stream of a particular
operator. An operator 'catalog' is a collection of operators and channels.)

I've also used sequence diagrams quite a lot, sometimes with UML along with
eg. this:
https://lucidchart.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/208029986

but mostly with mermaid-js.
