I do not see anything wrong with Andy's refspec glob we already have. Although I agree that the second asterisk in "src/*:dst/*" has a certain "Huh?" factor to UNIX-trained eyes, I think it is quite obvious even to new people what it does. Also, while I agree that (2) is logical and less typing, I would avoid cases where foo and foo/ behave differently when "foo" itself is a directory/tree like thing. Doing otherwise easily invites mistakes. - 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
