I would suggest using ‘git ls-remote’ and ‘git fetch’ to grab just the
branches you want.
#!/bin/sh
set -e
: ${remote=origin}
: ${options=--dry-run}
script='!/\.stgit$/ s'
script="${script}#.*\\trefs/heads/\\(.*\\)\$"
script="${script}#git fetch $options $remote "
script="${script} refs/heads/\\1:refs/remotes/$remote/\\1"
script="${script}#p"
eval "$(git ls-remote "$remote" | sed -n "$script")"
I am not sure how to generalize this: a pre-fetch hook that can reject
some branch names? a fetchregexp configuration item?
[remote "origin"]
url = git://git.example.com/repo.git/
fetchregexp = "refs/heads/\([^.]*\):refs/remotes/origin/\1"
Maybe we can solve some similar problems at the same time.
Thanks,
Jonathan
