I have a patch (that doesn't work, so it's not submitted), that would allow me to have: [remote "origin"] url = git://git2.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/up/* fetch = !refs/heads/html fetch = !refs/heads/todo i.e. I don't want those two branches, but I do want everything else. I'd also like to be able to do "!/refs/heads/temp/*" so I could block a whole subdirectory of branches. I have a feeling that this would come in handy for people like the person who was recently talking about having 880 branches in his repository, with only a few active.
