    bug fix

Some of commits has only commit ID: commit 3ad1...1aed4, but some of commits has a (origin/feature_branch) addition.

What is meaning of (origin/feature_branch) addition?

That was not my commits so I don't understand clearly what actions was did here and why commits are different.

It's showing you that the tips of those other branches are also at that commit.

Imagine that you're on master, and then you create three new branches at that location (but you don't add any commits). You'll have 4 branches whose tips are all at the same commit.
