Reference

with --contains flag shows only the branches that contain the named commit (in other words, the branches whose tip commits are descendants of the named commit).
with --merged shows only branches merged into the named commit (i.e. the branches whose tip commits are reachable from the named commit) will be listed.
with --no-merged shows only branches not merged into the named commit will be listed
if the argument is missing, it defaults to HEAD (i.e. the tip of the current branch).
