Git really doesn't have that exact feature (as far as I know). You can
get something similar with "git log --all --graph --decorate=full" which
will show you the graph so you can see which commits end up on what
branches. I find the graph format is better seen with "--oneline", but
it works with more verbose log formats (including -p).

Again, it might be worth you time trying to get tig[1] or gitk to work
on your system—they both have nice visualizations of the repo dag.
