Hi there, I'm NaN. Recently I enrolled to this mailing list thanks to the GSoC. I've looked the Ideas Page but -unfortunately- some projects are very difficult for me. I've looked the source code and I've seen that to perform a search with a pattern to the branches list (and other commands) git uses fnmatch() and so supports the glob pattern. I haven't never massively used the branches or the tags to have the necessity to filter in a particolar way the results, and the asterisk has always worked very well. But: why the decision to support the Blob Pattern instead of the Regular Expressions? With your experiences can a patch like this improve this side? Thanks for the awesome work, NaN -- 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
