This plugin provides a function which returns the name of the git branch.

:echo gitbranch#name()

You can use this function to integrate with statusline plugins.

For example, in order to show git branch using lightline.vim, configure as follows.

let g:lightline = {
      \ 'active': {
      \   'left': [ [ 'mode', 'paste' ],
      \             [ 'gitbranch', 'readonly', 'filename', 'modified' ] ]
      \ },
      \ 'component_function': {
      \   'gitbranch': 'gitbranch#name'
      \ },
      \ }

See the README.md of lightline for further details.
