That will either output the branch's name, if it contains the commit, or nothing if it doesn't. A different approach would be something like: git rev-list --count <commit> ^<branch name>. If that returns a count of 0, it means the commit is reachable from the branch. Otherwise, it'll output some positive count indicating how many commits (including the specific commit you asked about) are not reachable from the branch. (I suspect you don't really need the count, so you could also use "-1" instead of "--count".) Hope this helps, Bryan
