Git Info – Almost Like “svn info”

I have been trying to find something like svn info but for Git. Luckily, I stumbled upon Duane Johnson’s script. Here’s git-info.sh:

pushd . >/dev/null

# Find base of git directory
while [ ! -d .git ] && [ ! `pwd` = "/" ]; do cd ..; done

# Show various information about this git directory
if [ -d .git ]; then
  echo "== Remote URL: `git remote -v`"

  echo "== Remote Branches: "
  git branch -r
  echo

  echo "== Local Branches:"
  git branch
  echo

  echo "== Configuration (.git/config)"
  cat .git/config
  echo

  echo "== Most Recent Commit"
  git &#8212;no-pager log &#8212;max-count=1
  echo

  echo "Type 'git log' for more commits, or 'git show' for full commit details."
else
  echo "Not a git repository."
fi

popd >/dev/null

I made an alias in my .profile to make it a bit more accessible:
