Yeah, you did understand but I should have been more clear because my release tress go way back and don't all begin with 5. We go clear back to 3; so it could be
3.0
3.1
3.1-*
3.1_*
3.2
3.2-*
....
4.5
4.5-*
4.5_*
...
5.0
5.0-*
5.0_*
There is about 300 directories I'm walking through here.
:b!

Had this been an actual emergency, you would have been

you could try
for f in 5.1{,.1,.2}; do
(That will expand to 5.1, 5.1.1 and 5.1.2)
Did I understood well what you want?
