[TYPO3-core] Git question: which branch does a commit belongs to?

[Ernesto Baschny [cron IT]]

Hi,

when looking at a commit like this:

http://git.typo3.org/TYPO3v4/Core.git?a=commit;h=5573182f

Or this view (Forge):

http://forge.typo3.org/projects/typo3v4-core/repository/revisions/5573182f

How in earth do I know in which branch this was applied? There is no
hint or way to see that? Not even github shows me the branch:

https://github.com/typo3/git.typo3.org/commit/5573182f

So maybe this is technically impossible to achieve because the "branch"
is just a pointer to the HEAD of the branch?

How could I figure out the branch from the command line then, maybe by
"walking the history" (which is linear in case of our branches)?

Cheers,
Ernesto
