ok; it's on github: http://github.com/sitaramc/git-tools (they're all standalone tools; you don't have to use the others)

The output is now colorised, and it will now also tell you, for each remote you have, what branches you are hiding from them and what they have which you have not started tracking locally.

a "screenshot" is at http://sitaramc.github.com/git-tools/index.html#index_git_branch_check_

I notice I'm using it more and more, often even as a replacement for 'git status'... at least for repos where I'm juggling multiple remotes.
