My work uses GNU RCS for our version control system, but I don't think the specific VCS is relevant here. (I know RCS isn't the most modern system but it suits our needs fine and has the advantage of relative simplicity. Anyway, that's not the…

Can I get Emacs to indicate on the mode-line whether a push is needed, i.e. whether the repo is out of sync with origin? I've already got it telling me if a commit is needed using vc-status, but that doesn't indicate whether the most recent commit…
