    foreach(Branch b in ListBranchesContainingCommit(repo, commitSha))
    {
        Console.WriteLine(b.Name);
    }
}

private IEnumerable<Branch> ListBranchesContainingCommit(Repository repo, string commitSha)
{
    foreach (var branch in repo.Branches)
    {
        var commits = repo.Commits.QueryBy(new CommitFilter { Since = branch }).Where(c => c.Sha == commitSha);

        yield return branch;
