For people whose workflow involves switching back and forth between a lot of branches, it can be really helpful to be able to quickly tell which branch you are on and which ones are available. This patch introduces a small script that when invoked as `git branches' prints a list of available branches with a star in front of the one you are on:
$ cd linux-2.6/ $ git checkout -b ppc64-cleanups $ git checkout -b ppc64-new-devel $ git checkout -b ppc64-all-merge $ git branches master * ppc64-all-merge ppc64-cleanups ppc64-new-devel Signed-off-by: Amos Waterland <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --- git-branches-script | 8 ++++++++ 1 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) create mode 100755 git-branches-script 12ab86f36137c4ffd1fb9b878479b9befe4cf2d4 diff --git a/git-branches-script b/git-branches-script new file mode 100755 --- /dev/null +++ b/git-branches-script @@ -0,0 +1,8 @@ +#!/bin/sh + +. git-sh-setup-script || die "Not a git archive" + +current=$(basename $(readlink $GIT_DIR/HEAD)) + +cd $GIT_DIR/refs/heads && +ls | sed -e "s/^/ /" -e "s/ $current/* $current/" - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
