Re: [PATCH v2 0/3] Towards a useable git-branch

Oh, and by the way:

We're pretty close we are to replacing branch -v and branch -vv.

brv = for-each-ref --format='%(HEAD)
%C(green)%<(*)%(refname:short)%C(reset) %<(*)%(objectname:short)
%(subject)' refs/heads

brvv = for-each-ref --format='%(HEAD)
%C(green)%<(*)%(refname:short)%C(reset) %<(*)%(objectname:short)
%C(blue)%(upstream:short)%C(reset) %(subject)' refs/heads

There are small differences:

1. In branch -v, the green-color of the branch name is dependent on
%(HEAD).  Not worth ironing out, in my opinion.

2. In branch -vv, there are dependent square braces that come on when
%(refname:short) is set.  We might want to introduce an undocumented
%(refname:branchvv) for internal use by branch -vv, for backward
compatibility.

What do you think?
