It would be nice if you can do: I agree with everything you said earlier and the first sentence above. And I would have needed the possibility to limit the branch listing to a particular remote a lot in the past.

I would hate having to learn a new syntax '--match "jk/*"' when we can already say $ git log --remotes $ git log --remotes=alice --remotes=bob $ git log --remotes="jk/*" IMO, it is the right approach to have a long option --remotes with an optional argument. -- Hannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
