How to use PowerShell to get information about a Staging Windows Azure WebSite slot?

I'm using the PowerShell CmdLets to automate most tasks against Windows Azure Cloud Services and Windows Azure Web Sites.

For Cloud Services, I can use the Get-AzureDeployment CmdLet. However, the similar Get-AzureWebSiteDeployment CmdLet requires Git to be installed before it can run and does not seem to be designed for the same task.

As far as I can see, the Get-AzureWebSite CmdLet only ever retrieves the "Production" slot of a Windows Azure Web Site.

How is it possible to get programmatic access to the corresponding "Staging" slot ?

We are working on some PowerShell cmdlets to support website slots. We are very close to releasing it. Keep an eye on this repo on github. https://github.com/WindowsAzure/azure-sdk-tools

Current date update (Jul 19 2015): According to Azure Docs Web Sites Staging Slots there are new CMDLets that support querying Slots:

Show-AzureWebsite -Name webappslotstest -Slot staging

And some others cmdlets extended with -Slot attribute (Create New Website, Remove, Switch Slots).
