The format of a <refspec> parameter is an optional plus
|
||||
`+`, followed by the source <src>, followed
|
||||
by a colon `:`, followed by the destination ref <dst>.
|
||||
by a colon `:`, followed by the destination <dst>.
|
||||
The colon can be omitted when <dst> is empty. <src> is
|
||||
typically a ref, but it can also be a fully spelled hex object
|
||||
typically a ref, or a glob pattern with a single `*` that is used
|

to match a set of refs, but it can also be a fully spelled hex object

name.

||||
A <refspec> may contain a `*` in its <src> to indicate a simple pattern
|
||||
match. Such a refspec functions like a glob that matches any ref with the
|
||||
same prefix. A pattern <refspec> must have a `*` in both the <src> and
|
||||
pattern. A pattern <refspec> must have one and only one `*` in both the <src> and
|
||||
<dst>. It will map refs to the destination by replacing the `*` with the
|
||||
contents matched from the source.
