git-show-branch: Compare a given branch with the current branch.
$ git show-branch --current ${select}
try on your machine

The git show-branch command is used in Git to display the branch structure and its commit history. The --current option is used to highlight the current branch.

${select} is a placeholder representing the specific branch name you want to display as the current branch. You need to replace ${select} with the actual branch name.

By using the command git show-branch --current ${select}, Git will show the branch structure and commit history with the current branch highlighted, making it easier to identify the active branch among multiple branches.
