If you mean from which branch you forked a given branch it is
specified in the branch.<name>.remote and branch.<name>.merge + some
logic. To get it you can use the branchname@{upstream} syntax (new in
1.7.0) or use this command:
git for-each-ref --format='%(upstream)' refs/heads/branchname
But maybe we can help more if you say what you want to accomplish with
this information and not this specific detail.
HTH,
Santi
