is there a way to find out where a branch came from?

Question

is there a way to show like the tree structure for the branches created?

say i start from MASTER then to SONAR-VIOLATIONS then to PROJECT_ONE_VIOLATION, what is the command/method to show where the new branches branched from? in sort of a tree structure?

Answer 1

One of the simplest solution would be git log --graph (better with --oneline and --decorate options).
