Check if branch contains commit

Kelly Stannard · Kelly Stannard · commit 3c6e1db16fd0 · 2014-08-29T10:35:49.000-04:00
This allows the user to see if an arbitrary commit is contained within a
branch. For example you can check to see if a branch was merged into
master with `git.branch('master').contains?('feature')`. Or you can see
if your feature branch has the latest master commit with
  `git.branch('feature').contains?('master')`
