True.

However I'm still not really clear about the distinction between the
'basis' and the `header references` (that is, the text doesn't make it
clear).

for the future updates, it would also be good if the `--all` and
`--branches --tags` text was also shown in the examples - I continue to
get StackOverflow points for my Q&A on that ;-)
