From c0f6dc9b20523a569e567d3be4cabbc949c71b43 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lea Wiemann Date: Thu, 5 Jun 2008 23:01:38 +0200 Subject: git-for-each-ref.txt: minor improvements Rewrapped synopsis and removed wrong asterisk behind --count option; clarified --sort= description for multiple keys; documented that for-each-ref supports not only glob patterns but also prefixes like "refs/heads" as patterns, and that multiple patterns can be given.
