Subject: How can I get a list of checkout history?
Message-ID: <CAHd499D5nMvFQ-eok_3tMZTNp+9JdcMZSL9XrXqkdUNxmRq_eQ@mail.gmail.com>

As you know, I can checkout the Nth checked out branch via this syntax:

$ git checkout @{-N}

Is there a built-in mechanism to get a listing of previously checked
out refs? Basically, this would be similar to 'history' command in
linux where instead of actual commands, it lists like this:

HEAD@{-1}: master
HEAD@{-2}: topic1
HEAD@{-3}: 3f556e9 (detached)

Seems like reflog should be able to do this, and maybe it can, but I'm
not sure. Any tips? I'd be fine making a convenient alias for this if
it ends up being a series of piped commands.

Thanks in advance.
