I had a hard time following my own branches in a project. They got pretty
numerous, and I wasn’t sure if I pushed them to origin at all.
git branch -a
can list all the branches, including remote ones, but, as
my list grew too big, it was impossible to follow it any more.
Thus, I have created a small script called git-branches-with-remotes, which
does the work for me. Its only requirements are git (of course), and the
column
command, which is pretty obviously present on every POSIX
compliant systems (even OSX).
{% gist gergelypolonkai/8af6a3e86b57dd4c250e %}
I just put it in my path, and git branches-with-remotes
does the work!
Edit (16 August): I have added some code to mark the current branch (if any) with an asterisk. Also, I have put this script in a gist.
Edit (26 February, 2015): It turns out that git branch -vv
shows the same
information and some more: it also shows if the branches are diverged, and the
first line of the last commit’s message.
