    Shows how many commits ahead and behind git remotes are.
How to run:
bash remote_status.sh [remote]

The remote defaults to origin
(optional) Installation:

chmod +x remote_status.sh
echo "alias remote-status=$(pwd)/remote_status.sh" >> ~/.bash_profile
source ~/.bash_profile

You can now run remote-status from anywhere to check on your git remote push/pull status.
Example

$ remote-status
↑2↓3

That above means that you have 2 commits that haven't been pushed, and 3 commits that haven't been pulled.

  
## remote_status.sh
#!/usr/bin/env bash

printf '↑'
git rev-list ${1:-origin}..HEAD | wc -l | tr -d ' ' | xargs echo -n
printf '↓'
git rev-list HEAD..${1:-origin} | wc -l | tr -d ' '
	#!/usr/bin/env bash

	printf '↑'
	git rev-list ${1:-origin}..HEAD \| wc -l \| tr -d ' ' \| xargs echo -n
	printf '↓'
	git rev-list HEAD..${1:-origin} \| wc -l \| tr -d ' '
