Show remote branches in log

[cruessler]

I opened this draft in order to have the PR run on CI. make check passes on 1.68.2, but one tests fails on nightly. The PR itself is mostly done, I think. I’ll add more context to this description in the coming days.

This Pull Request closes #1501.

It changes the following:

• Show remote branches in revlog
• Don’t show upstream if commit is local branch head

I followed the checklist:

• I added unittests
• I ran make check without errors
• I tested the overall application
• I added an appropriate item to the changelog

Looks like nightly is just broken on master

Ping me once you thinks it’s ready 🙏

@extrawurst You can already start testing the main functionality. The two things I still want to add are a changelog entry and a bit more context on possible refactorings.

[extrawurst]

lgtm lets move this over the finish line

[extrawurst]

small nitpick. we probably can just use the same notation aka {...} for remote branches aswell, don't you think? the remotes name kinda implies it already? have not looked at tig - lets compare how the others are doing it

[cruessler]

tig has it the other way around. It uses [main] for local branches and {origin/main} for remote branches (that’s where I got the inspiration from). tig also uses different colors for local or remote branches. But you’re right, the naming probably always or most of the time also provides this piece of information. To be honest, I don’t have a preference.
