Thank you for catching this. Confirmed that the output of "git branch -v"
is not aligned well. This example may be more clear ;-)

    $ git branch -v
     branch1    f0ec0da [ahead 1, behind 2] divert from upstream
     branch2    f5eb3da  commit pushed to upstream
     branch3    f935eb6 unpublished topic

How about add "strbuf_addch(stat, ' ');" to each condition directly,  like this:


        if (upstream_is_gone) {
                if (show_upstream_ref) {
                        strbuf_addf(stat, _("[%s: gone]"), fancy.buf);
                        strbuf_addch(stat, ' ');
                }
        } else if (!ours && !theirs) {
                if (show_upstream_ref) {
                        strbuf_addf(stat, _("[%s]"), fancy.buf);
                        strbuf_addch(stat, ' ');
                }
        } else if (!ours) {
                if (show_upstream_ref)
                        strbuf_addf(stat, _("[%s: behind %d]"),
fancy.buf, theirs);
                else
                        strbuf_addf(stat, _("[behind %d]"), theirs);
                strbuf_addch(stat, ' ');
        } else if (!theirs) {
                if (show_upstream_ref)
                        strbuf_addf(stat, _("[%s: ahead %d]"), fancy.buf, ours);
                else
                        strbuf_addf(stat, _("[ahead %d]"), ours);
                strbuf_addch(stat, ' ');
        } else {
                if (show_upstream_ref)
                        strbuf_addf(stat, _("[%s: ahead %d, behind %d]"),
                                    fancy.buf, ours, theirs);
                else
                        strbuf_addf(stat, _("[ahead %d, behind %d]"),
                                    ours, theirs);
                strbuf_addch(stat, ' ');
        }
        strbuf_release(&fancy);
        free(ref);
