I assume that commits c1 and c2 are not one ancestor of the other (are
not in fast-forward relation).

Translating your question into question about DAG of revisions, you
want to check if there is branch for which both c1 and c2 are
reachable from:

  c1sha=$(git rev-parse c1)
  c2sha=$(git rev-parse c2)
  git for-each-ref --format="%(refname)" refs/heads/ |
  while read refname
  do 
      b1=$(git merge-base c1 $refname)
      b2=$(git merge-base c2 $refname)
      if [ "$b1" = "$c1sha" -a "$b2" = "$c2sha" ]
      then
          print ${refname#refs/heads/}
      fi
  done

Instead of comparing git-merge-base with SHA-1 of c1 and c2
respoectively, you can count commits:

  git for-each-ref --format="%(refname)" refs/heads/ |
  while read refname
  do 
      count1=$(git rev-list c1..$refname | wc -l)
      count2=$(git rev-list c2..$refname | wc -l)
      if [ "$count1" > 0  -a  "$count2" > 0 ]
      then
          print ${refname#refs/heads/}
      fi
  done

Not tested!
