Useful git tricks

git.sh

# Get a list of changes in a given range, grouped by author
git shortlog {starting ref}..{ending ref}

# ... sorted by most commits per author
git shortlog -n {starting ref}..{ending ref}

# Get a list of branches that have been merged into the given branch (defaults to HEAD), but not deleted
git branch --merged {branch}

# ... on a given remote
git branch -r --merged {branch (which can be remote/branch)}
