git-show-branch: Keep going a given number of commits past the common ancestor.
$ git show-branch --more ${5} ${select} ${select} ${---}
try on your machine
The "git show-branch" command in Git is used to show the branch relationship and the commit history between branches. It displays the commits reachable from the branch pointers in a compact way.
In the given command, there are three placeholders used:
- ${5}: This appears to be a placeholder for a specific branch name or commit ID that you want to view the branch relationship for.
- ${select}: This also appears to be a placeholder for a branch name or commit ID. It is used twice in the command, which might be a mistake as it doesn't provide any distinguishing information.
- ${---}: This is not a commonly used placeholder in Git commands, so it's possible that it is a typo or an incorrect placeholder.
Overall, the command is incomplete and might not provide the desired output, assuming that the placeholders should be replaced with appropriate branch names or commit IDs.
This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and
never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
