There are existing old SVN repos which use patterns in branch (and tag) names
to indicate some information. For example: branches/release_01, branches/release_02, etc,
however non-patterned branches co-exist with them (like branches/dev).
If someone maintains git mirror of such a repo it is reasonable to mirror only
several branches (for example those who match some pattern) and in current situation
it leads to messy and error-prone git config like:
branches = branches/{release_20,release_21,release_22,...
It would be useful to have an opportunity to write
branches = branches/release_*
instead of this.
Thus I suggest to add support for such 'prefixed' globs into git-svn.
Victor Leschuk (2):
Introduce prefixed globs for branches and tags in git-svn.
Add test for git-svn prefixed globs.
