It is not clear what this "glob" means to me.  Enlightenment?

My cursory reading of the code is that you are grabbing things
under branches/ and tags/, expecting each of what you would find
there is the whole-tree of a revision, and do not want to see
any regular file immediately underneath branches/ and tags/.

Is that what is happening here?
