Mostly correct, but because we consider refnames like filesystem paths and
the use of globs when matching them is shared as the same basic design
across commands, I do not think the manual page for each individual
command is the right place to say it.

Thanks for a reminder, and no, don't be sorry.  This type of "project
secretary" help is very much appreciated, and you are demonstrating that
you do not have to know the code very intimately to do this, which is also
very good.

This is in "The author will come back if he feels strongly enough, so I
can safely forget about it. I am not qualified to take over as the primary
promoter of the topic if the author abandones it anyway" (aka "not mine")
category.

Likewise.

I do not have anybody in my killfile.  I think this patch is Ok with a
minor fix to log as you say.  How about

	git-show-branch doc: show -g as synonym to --reflog in the list

I haven't looked at it.  As long as it only touches the messages and not
strings used to invoke other commands with their names, there shouldn't be
any downside.

Again, this is in "not mine" category.

Hmm, ... goes to the archive ... I guess this shouldn't hurt.

Thanks.  I wish there were more like you.
