git-map(1)
==========

NAME
----
git-map -
include::_git-map_desc.helper.txt[]

SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
'git map' [<extra_args>...]

DESCRIPTION
-----------

Git map formats the output of `git log --graph` from all refs such that:

* Current branch is [aqua]#cyan#.
* Local branches are [green]#green#.
* Remote branches are [red]#red#.
* Tags are [fuchsia]#magenta#.
* Merge Base markers are [black-background white]#white#.
* The currently checked out commit is highlighted with a [yellow blue-background]#blue background#.

The output is automatically piped through the `less` pager command, even on
windows.

OPTIONS
-------
<extra_args>...::
  Extra parameters to pass to the internal linkgit:git-log[1] invocation. This
  can be used to restrict what refs 'git map' operates on, etc.
+
If you run git map with a series of fixed arguments frequently, you can use
the depot-tools.map-extra configuration variable to pre-set arguments (See
`CONFIGURATION VARIABLES`)


CONFIGURATION VARIABLES
-----------------------

depot-tools.map-extra
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Each value of the 'depot-tools.map-extra' config variable is applied as an
additional argument to `git log` during the execution of git map. If you wish to
configure this, use git `config --add depot-tools.map-extra <value>` to do so.

EXAMPLE
-------

Running 'git map' would result in an output something like:
demo:1[]

As you can see, the structure of the commit history is visible, particularly
what the parents of each commit are.  In order to see the 'upstream'
relationships of the branches (i.e. which branch is tracking which other
branch), use the linkgit:git-map-branches[1] command.

linkgit:git-map-branches[1]
