Hmm, on a related note, is there an obvious way to _show_ the current
branch's upstream...?

[I mean, which just prints out "origin/master" or whatever...]

Thanks,

-miles

git for-each-ref --format="%(upstream)" $(git symbolic-ref HEAD)

I can't come up with a better way of expanding @{u} without resolving
the resulting refname to a SHA1. You could do

what about

    git branch -vv

it will show all local branches with their upstream plus behind/ahead numbers

cheers,
daniel
