Nitpick: maybe builtin/branch.c and builtin/tag.c could share match_pattern().?

A second thought: the printed "remotes/" prefix could be confusing for users,
since it seems to be part of the refname. For example:

$ git branch -a
* master
  maint
  man
  remotes/origin/master
  remotes/origin/maint
  remotes/origin/man

$ git branch -a --list remotes/origin*
[no output]

but

$ git branch -a --list origin*
  remotes/origin/master
  remotes/origin/maint
  remotes/origin/man

(Sorry in case I missed that) What's the reason you decided --list to show local
branches only? Maybe --list could show all refnames without any extra prefix.?

Thanks.
