Using canned set of tools, I do not think there is anything less
complex than doing something like:

 $ git log --oneline --decorate --branches --not --tags

The longer term goal that has been floated a few times here is to
unify various logic that computes containment relationships in
"branch", "tags", etc. to one place and perhaps expose that unified
logic to "for-each-ref", but that hasn't happened yet.
