I like it too. I would like to add some more descripton, because I think for newbies the .. and ... can be overlooked. Something like: $ git fetch spearce ... URL: git://repo.or.cz/git/spearce.git * (new) spearce/gitk: new branch 'gitk' * 1aa3d01..e7187e4 spearce/maint: fast forward to branch 'maint' * de61e42..7840ce6 spearce/master: fast forward to branch 'master' * 895be02..2fe5433 spearce/next: fast forward to branch 'next' + 89fa332...1e4c517 spearce/pu: forcing update to non-fast forward branch 'pu' * (new) spearce/todo: new branch spearce/todo I would also put 'URL:' instead '==>'.
