A small script to find stale branches
#!/bin/bash
# This is a very naive script, it doesn't do grouping and returns all branches
# I only really care about branches that have not seen commits in two months
#
# I am hoping to find some time to write a tool that can output these reports for me
# In the meantime, I am using this
echo "Merged branches"
