The advantage with the current code, is that the match parser already handles it perfectly. It was just the rules up front which limited how much we could do. I don't think the added complexity is that valuable here.. For most common cases it's just prefixes or suffixes that matter. > We _might_ want to allow one (and only one) component with more than > one asterisk on the LHS of a refspec, while requiring only one > asterisk on the RHS to allow "this '*g*' is just like '*' but > excluding things that do not have 'g' in it". > As above, I think it's obvious the intended meaning, but... the actual interpretation could be a variety of things. It's not guaranteed to be interpreted in that way, and while we could document it, I don't think that it is worth the complexity unless someone actually needs this behavior. > Or it may not be worth the additional complexity. > Below diff looks fine, thanks!
