Tested in git 1.8.1.1 and 1.8.1.4.

In my opinion, there are two ways to fix this:

  - change the "git branch" implementation so
that --contains implies --list.


I think that is the best option, too. In fact, I even wrote a patch. :)

It's d040350 (branch: let branch filters imply --list, 2013-01-31), and
it's already in v1.8.2-rc0.

Great! Thanks for the quick fix of my bug report. Negative response
time... not bad. Not bad at all. :-)

I think that is the best option, too. In fact, I even wrote a patch. :)

It's d040350 (branch: let branch filters imply --list, 2013-01-31), and
it's already in v1.8.2-rc0.
