Hello, Just playing with it, got some surprises: $ git --version git version 1.9.3 $ git describe --all heads/v3.5 $ git describe --all --match 'v*' tags/v3.5.6b2-4-gab4bf78 $ git describe --all --match 'heads/v*' fatal: No names found, cannot describe anything. ... "heads/v3.5" matches neither 'v*' nor 'heads/v*'? $ git describe --all --match 'v*' tags/v3.5.6b2-4-gab4bf78 $ git describe --all --match 'tags/v*' fatal: No names found, cannot describe anything. ... git matches short names when outputs full names? Is it a defect, or what do I miss? -- Sergei.
