Depending on what you want to do---from a bash shell, you could do:
for i in $(git branch -a | cut -b3-); do echo $i; git show -s $i; echo; done
>  - info about the last time it was merged into master

for i in $(git branch -a | cut -b3-); do echo $i; git show -s $(git merge-base $i master); echo; done
