i have created a repo for this script on github in order to have a proper issue tracker - all further development and communications will take place there - feel free to clone, fork, star , or watch the github repo -->

https://github.com/bill-auger/git-branch-status/

this script is also now icluded in jwiegley's git-scripts collection but please direct comments, bug reports, and feature requests to the upstream issue tracker

@sroze -
could you please merge my fork into yours - this will replace the script body with a link to the latest upstream repo on github like so:

git remote add bill-auger-gist https://gist.github.com/9335fe2633eae38d3070.git
git fetch bill-auger-gist
git merge bill-auger-gist/master
