Re: how to hide some branches

Pascal Obry:

git branch --no-merged

shows only the branches that has not been merged into your current working branch. That might be one solution.

I don't know if it is possible to set it as a default option, but I would also appreciate such a feature.

I use the "git branch --merged" to move away merged branches into a different "namespace" (branch "a" becomes "merged/a"):

  for branch in $(git branch --merged master | egrep -v 'merged|master');
  do
    git branch -m "$branch" "merged/$branch"
  done
