Re: [PATCH] Introduce --current option to git-branch builtin command.

git-branch has four modes: 'list', 'create', 'delete', and

That is how I would look at it.  We can think of various ways that
"list" can be filtered, and matching by name is one that we have an
implementation for.  "Current-only" could be another one.

If '--current' implies the 'list'-mode, it would use
print_ref_list'. There already is code in print_ref_list to detect
whether a branch is the current one, it outputs the branch list in a
formatted way, it takes care of 'columns', so wouldn't it be better to
modify that code to only print the current branch ?

Exactly.
