.SH "NAME"

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
Git map\-branches displays all local branches such that:
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
Current branch is
cyan\&.
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
The branch which will be modified with git\-commit is denoted with an asterisk (*) after the name\&.

.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\

Local branches are
green\&.

.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c

.el \{\

.IP \(bu 2.3

Remote branches are

Branches which have this as their parent are usually misconfigured, and should be assigned a parent by checking out the branch and running git branch \-\-set\-upstream\-to=<correct parent branch>\&.

.SH "EXAMPLE"
.sp
Given the hypothetical demo repo in \fBgit-map\fR(1)\*(Aqs EXAMPLE section, and assuming that the frozen_changes branch was currently checked out, running \fIgit map\-branches\fR would result in an output like:
.sp

.sp
.if n \{\

.nf
\fB$ git map\-branches\fR
{NO_UPSTREAM}
  no_upstream
origin/master

\fB    frozen_branch *\fR

.if n \{\

.SH "SUGGESTED ALIASES"

Some common short\-hand aliases\&. Feel free to add these to your \fI~/\&.gitconfig\fR file\&.
