Subject: Listing commits that are _exclusively_ available on a given branch
Message-ID: <CALKQrge-=XExhwxuC14uynpuuO3W+f4YO4=X7kFUx33F3HtnyQ@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out how to list commits on a given branch that
are not available on any other branch, i.e. the commits that are
exclusive to my branch.

So far I only have this somewhat brute-force alternative:

  git rev-list refs/heads/mybranch --not $(git show-ref --heads | grep
-v refs/heads/mybranch)

Is it possible to phrase this query in a simpler manner? Preferably by
not having to list all refs and then run grep on it...

(I've already tried playing around with "git show-branch" and its
options, but to no avail.)


Have fun! :)

...Johan
