Find unmerged Git branches?
The below script will find all origin/*
branches that are ahead of current branch
#!/bin/bash
CURRENT_BRANCH=$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)
echo -e "Current branch: \e[94m$CURRENT_BRANCH\e[0m"
echo ''
git branch -a | grep remotes/origin/ | while read LINE
do
CMD="git diff --shortstat remotes/origin/${CURRENT_BRANCH}...${LINE}"
if $CMD | grep ' file' > /dev/null; then
echo -e "\e[93m$LINE\e[0m" | sed 's/remotes\/origin\///'
$CMD
echo ''
fi
done
The up-to-date version of the script
You can also use the -r
parameter to show remote branches that were not merged into master:
git branch -r --merged master
git branch -r --no-merged
If a branch is merged already, merging it again won't do anything. So you don't have to be worried about "re-merging" branches that are already merged.
To answer your question, you can simply issue
git branch --merged
to see the merged branches or
git branch --no-merged
to see the unmerged branches. Your current branch is implied but you can specify other branches if you wish.
git branch --no-merged integration
will show you branches that are not yet merged into integration
branch.
Try this:
git branch --merged master
It does what it says on the tin (lists branches which have been merged into master
). You can also pull up the inverse with:
git branch --no-merged master
If you don't specify master
, e.g...
git branch --merged
then it will show you branches which have been merged into the current HEAD
(so if you're on master
, it's equivalent to the first command; if you're on foo
, it's equivalent to git branch --merged foo
).
You can also compare upstream branches by specifying the -r
flag and a ref to check against, which can be local or remote:
git branch -r --no-merged origin/master
