git-branch-info

Get information about the age and committers on remote branches.

GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket all show the number of commits "ahead" and "behind", but this adds the ability to show who has committed to each branch.

Quick Start

To use, copy this script onto your path and run git branch-info.

For more user-friendly output, try:

git branch-info | sort | cut -f 2-

Output

Example output from running on the Flask repository:
