git is-it-in

Find whether a commit has been merged into a branch.

Usage: git is-it-in ref1 ref2

This will tell you whether ref1 is an ancestor of ref2 or vice versa.

Examples:

$ git is-it-in 963102 HEAD
963102 is an ancestor of HEAD

$ git is-it-in 963102   # If no second argument, we assume HEAD
963102 is an ancestor of HEAD

$ git is-it-in 8f8e49997e HEAD
8f8e49997e is NOT an ancestor of HEAD
HEAD is NOT an ancestor of 8f8e49997e

$ git is-it-in 8f8e49997e 963102
963102 is an ancestor of 8f8e49997e
