Hi Artem,
Branches are ephemeral (temporary), so in general it's not possible, which
is part of the Git design.
Also why must is be using just the 'git log' command, rethar than a bit of
scripting (The Linux way (TM))?
If you have a well defined branch and merge policy that prevents criss cross
merges, or feature on feature development, along with recording branch names
in the merge message in a standard format, then you have a chance.
The thing to look for is the --merge-base option(s), however beware of the
reflog issue (see
https://public-inbox.org/git/[email protected]/)
as the reflog may suggest an alternate merge-base.
So why 'git log' alone?, and do you have a tight process?

Subject: [git-users] How to parse commit graph from git log output?
Hello!
I want to retrieve commit graph of some repo using only git log output
(git
log --parents --all --source). In general, I want to know when a
particular
branch was created and merged into the master (or another branch). Where
can I find information on how to do this correctly?
