Subject: Finding the name of the parent branch?
Message-ID: <a2633edd0901300256k2ad7530elcaca5cdc30c17534@mail.gmail.com>

I want to find the name of the parent branch in a script. What is the best way?

                         o---o---o---C
                         /
                    o---o---o---B
                   /
           ---o---o---o---o---o---A

For B I want to get A and for C I want to get B.

All this can be found in gitk, but from a script I did not found a
good solution.

Any idea?

Thanks.
Pascal.
