This has made me realize that I can get the behavior I need by using `%(if)`. Exclude symrefs: "%(if)%(symref)%(then)%(else)%(refname)%(end)" Only symrefs: "%(if)%(symref)%(then)%(refname)%(end)" However, this still prints an empty line for each ref that does not match the condition. This can be cleaned up by piping through `grep .`, but what would you think of adding a new optional flag to git-for-each-ref to prevent it from printing empty expanded format strings?
