What other branch to compare (e.g., @{upstream}, @{push}, something else?) and how detailed comparison we want (e.g., only tell me when we are ahead with just a single bit, give me ahead/behind count, only tell me when we are behind with just a single bit, etc.). There may be other interesting axes people may be able to come up with in the future. We do not have to be exhaustive on values on all axes on the first day, but it would be nice to have a fairly complete coverage of what axes matter to users, and it is a great suggestion that the level of details can be one. Thanks.
