DESCRIPTION
OPTIONS
-------
<rev>::
- Arbitrary extended SHA1 expression (see linkgit:git-rev-parse[1])
+ Arbitrary extended SHA1 expression (see linkgit:gitrevisions[7])
that typically names a branch head or a tag.
<glob>::
When no explicit <ref> parameter is given, it defaults to the
current branch (or `HEAD` if it is detached).
---color::
+--color[=<when>]::
Color the status sign (one of these: `*` `!` `+` `-`) of each commit
corresponding to the branch it's in.
+ The value must be always (the default), never, or auto.
--no-color::
Turn off colored output, even when the configuration file gives the
default to color output.
+ Same as `--color=never`.
Note that --more, --list, --independent and --merge-base options
are mutually exclusive.
------------------------------------------------
These three branches all forked from a common commit, [master],
-whose commit message is "Add \'git show-branch\'". The "fixes"
-branch adds one commit "Introduce "reset type" flag to "git reset"".
-The "mhf" branch adds many other commits. The current branch
-is "master".
+whose commit message is "Add {apostrophe}git show-branch{apostrophe}".
+The "fixes" branch adds one commit "Introduce "reset type" flag to
+"git reset"". The "mhf" branch adds many other commits.
+The current branch is "master".
EXAMPLE
Without `--list`, the output also shows how these tips are
topologically related with each other.
