So you ask for the equivalent of the output of the following script?

#!/bin/bash

BR=`LANG=c git branch | grep "^\*" | sed -e "s|^* *||"`

HD=`git rev-parse --verify HEAD`

FP=`git merge-base --octopus master HEAD`

echo "    BRANCH: $BR"
echo "      HEAD: $HD"
if [ ! -z $FP ]; then
  echo "MERGE_BASE: $FP"
  echo -e '\n   HISTORY:\n   ========\n';
  git log --pretty=format:"      HASH: %H%n   SUBJECT: %s%n" $FP~1..HEAD
| cat
fi
