git show-branch

Show branches and their commits. More information: https://git-scm.com/docs/git-show-branch.

• Show a summary of the latest commit on a branch:

git show-branch {{branch_name|ref|commit}}

• Compare commits in the history of multiple commits or branches:

git show-branch {{branch_name1|ref1|commit1 branch_name2|ref2|commit2 ...}}

• Compare all remote tracking branches:

git show-branch --remotes

• Compare both local and remote tracking branches:

git show-branch --all

• List the latest commits in all branches:

git show-branch --all --list

• Compare a given branch with the current branch:

git show-branch --current {{commit|branch_name|ref}}

• Display the commit name instead of the relative name:

git show-branch --sha1-name --current {{current|branch_name|ref}}

• Keep going a given number of commits past the common ancestor:

git show-branch --more {{5}} {{commit|branch_name|ref}} {{commit|branch_name|ref}} {{...}}
