+# Show List Of Most Recently Committed Branches
+
+The standard way to list your branches is with the `git branch` command. If
+you use branches extensively for feature work and bug fixes, you may find
+yourself overwhelmed by the list of branches trying to visually parse
+through them for the one that you had worked on recently.
+
+With the `git for-each-ref` command, we can produce a better list of
+branches.
+
+```bash
+$ git for-each-ref --sort=-committerdate --count=10 --format='%(refname:short)' refs/heads/
+```
+
+The command itself will iterate over all of the repository's refs and print
+them out as a list. The `--sort=-committerdate` option will ensure that list
+is sorted by refs mostly recently committed to. The `--count=10` option
+limits the list output to 10 refs. The `format` flag cleans up the output a
+bit, only showing the shortname of the ref. Lastly, the `refs/heads/`
+argument ensures that only local refs are included in the output, thus
+ignoring remote refs.
+
+The result is a list of local branches ordered by recency which generally
+corresponds to relevance.
+
+See `man git-for-each-ref` for more details.
