Hi,
I know
    git branch --contains <commit>
can display all local branches that has specified commit. However, specify a
branch and commit, I don't know how to determine whether this branch contains
this commit.
I think
    git branch --contains <commit> | grep <branch name>
is not good enough. Does anyone have a better solution?
Thanks.
