The existing output of "git remote show <remote>" is too verbose for the
information it provides. This patch teaches it to provide more
information in less space.
The output for push refspecs is addressed in the next patch.
Before the patch:
$ git remote show origin
* remote origin
URL: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
HEAD branch: master
Remote branch merged with 'git pull' while on branch master
master
Remote branch merged with 'git pull' while on branch next
next
Remote branches merged with 'git pull' while on branch octopus
foo bar baz frotz
New remote branch (next fetch will store in remotes/origin)
html
Stale tracking branch (use 'git remote prune')
bogus
Tracked remote branches
maint
man
master
next
pu
todo
After this patch:
$ git remote show origin
* remote origin
URL: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
HEAD branch: master
Remote branches:
bogus stale (use 'git remote prune' to remove)
html new (next fetch will store in remotes/origin)
maint tracked
man tracked
master tracked
next tracked
pu tracked
todo tracked
Local branches configured for 'git pull':
master rebases onto remote master
next rebases onto remote next
octopus merges with remote foo
and with remote bar
and with remote baz
and with remote frotz
$ git remote show origin -n
* remote origin
URL: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git

GIT - the stupid content tracker
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
"git" can mean anything, depending on your mood.
- random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a
mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
- stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
dictionary of slang.
- "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
- "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an
unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations
and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License.
It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of
hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-commandname.txt for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with "man gittutorial" or "git help tutorial", and the
documentation of each command with "man git-commandname" or "git help
commandname".
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
("man gitcvs-migration" or "git help cvs-migration" if git is
installed).
Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git.or.cz/
including full documentation and Git related tools.
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git
mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature
requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org. To subscribe
to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to
majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival sites.
The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in
git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and
the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good
reference for project status, development direction and
remaining tasks.
