Maybe not. I thought it was some useful information, though. > Can you tell, at that point, if there were explicit branch names given > originally on the command line, or the refs came > from --all? No: if (!strcmp(arg, "--all")) { handle_all(revs, flags); continue; } which calls static void handle_all(struct rev_info *revs, unsigned flags) { struct all_refs_cb cb; cb.all_revs = revs; cb.all_flags = flags; for_each_ref(handle_one_ref, &cb); } which in turn calls static int handle_one_ref(const char *path, const unsigned char *sha1, int flag, void *cb_data) { struct all_refs_cb *cb = cb_data; struct object *object = get_reference(cb->all_revs, path, sha1, cb->all_flags); add_pending_object(cb->all_revs, object, path); return 0; } If you do not say --all, handle_revision_arg() is called, which calls add_pending_object thus: add_pending_object(revs, &a->object, this); add_pending_object(revs, &b->object, next); or thus add_pending_object_with_mode(revs, object, arg, mode); So no, there is not really a chance to see how the refs were specified at the time add_pending_object() is called.
