[PATCH] for-each-ref: `:short` format for `refname`

@@ -74,6 +74,11 @@ For all objects, the following names can be used:
 
 refname::
 	The name of the ref (the part after $GIT_DIR/).
+	For a short name of the ref append `:short`. This will strip
+	the common directory prefix with the pattern which matches this ref.
+	I.e. for a the pattern `refs/heads` you get `master`, or for
+	`refs/tags/v1.5.[01].*` you get `v1.5.[01].*`.
+	This is particular usefull for bash completion.
 
 objecttype::
 	The type of the object (`blob`, `tree`, `commit`, `tag`).
