Subject: How to find commits unique to a branch
Date: Mon, 20 Jun 2016 13:43:37 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <878txz8ubq.fsf@thinkpad.rath.org> (raw)

Hello,

What's the best way to find all commits in a branch A that have not been
cherry-picked from (or to) another branch B?

I think I could format-patch all commits in every branch into separate
files, hash the Author and Date of each files, and then compare the two
lists. But I'm hoping there's a way to instead have git do the
heavy-lifting?


Best,
-Nikolaus
