    $ git status

    On branch master

    1) master is the name of the branch.

    2) It is a reference(pointer) to last commit id. Hence where ever we required to use last

    commit id, simply we can use reference master.

    3) This information is available in .git/refs/heads/master file.

    The following two commands will produce same output.

    $ git show 49aa8d7

    $ git show master
