Description

It would be really nice to have a dry run parameter, which outputs the changes that would be made.

Research direction

Start by locating the shell command entry point and the operations that modify the Git repository. Determine which changes a dry run should report and verify that previewing them leaves the repository unchanged. Done means the parameter is documented and reliably reports the intended changes without applying them.
