Hi,

please cc me as i am not subscribed to this list.

is there a command in git that will tell me if a given topic branch in a repository is setup to track a remote branch?

i think it would be useful so i can see which branches are pointing where when i try and then do a "git push"

TIA!

Jason

you could do "git branch -avv" (especially -vv for "very verbose" :-))

---------
  docs   57dddc4 Docs: Reformatted ...
* foo    96afa77 [pub/foo] Ticket 1234 ...
---------

In the second line you can see that local branch "foo" follows "foo" in
the remote "pub".

Or simply "cat .git/config" and check the "branches" sections:

---------
[branch "foo"]
        remote = pub
        merge = refs/heads/foo
---------


HTH,
Dirk
