I am not sure if it is a good idea to show */*/* as an example in
the message (that is an anti-example of 'one set of wildcard' by
having three stars, isn't it?), but that is not a new issue this
change introduces.

Actually, going back to commit 570d35c26dfbc40757da6032cdc96afb58cc0037
("git-svn: Allow deep branch names by supporting multi-globs"),
having equal '*' on both sides is all that is required.

Not sure how to improve the wording, though...

I dunno, either, and that is why "not a new issue", iow, the patch
is good as-is.  The wording might be an area with possible future
improvement, but that does not have to block the improvement the
patch under discussion brings us.

Thanks.
