Yes. In the arm-soc tree I usually just merge all changes on top
of the for-next branch, and occasionally clean it up, starting over
with a fresh -rc release and pulling the other branches in, then
use git-diff to make sure the contents are identical to what they
were before.

I'm not sure I understand the question. Maybe you are looking
for 'git branch --no-merged for-next' That command will show
all local branches that are not merged into the for-next branch.
